Printer duplex does not work

I have another problem after my migration to Publisher
2003. The duplex feature does not work with Publisher now.
It works fine with other apps (word).

When I look at printer properties, it is not using the
defaults (paper size, duplex yes, etc) but shows a "user
defined" paper size. I have tried changing the settings
within publisher (under page setup) but no changes are
saved when I re-enter the settings dialog box it is back
to manual duplex. However, it does not even behave like
manual duplex (print odds, then manually flip to print
evens). I think this is the culprit but just cannot find a
way for Pub 2003 to save the settings.

I HAVE THE LATEST PRINTER DRIVERS - VERIFIED BY PRINTER
WEB SITE. This is a Brother HL-1650 with v1.45 driver.

There are no known printing issues in any versions of Publisher.

SHOUTING ABOUT HAVING THE LATEST PRINTER DRIVERS FOR PROBABLY THE WORST
BRAND OF PRINTER AVAILABLE IN THE MARKET PLACE DOES NOT HELP MATTERS.

Next time buy a quality laser printer.

Brother worse than HP, Davey?! ;o)

Hardware wise Brother is the poorest quality printer on the market and
always has been and still are.

Brother is sold at high prices by office equipment stores and not in the
discount chains.
High profit margin printers for low quality hardware.

I like the printer. I have had several HP's (2 inkjets, 1
laser) and the Brother has been fine. Envelopes never
seemed to feed correctly on the HP inkjets or the
orientation never matched what the application thought it
should be.

But back to the story, I contacted Brother as well and
they told me to try using their PS driver instead of PCL.
The PS driver duplexed with MSPUB03 fine so I would assume
it is a bug in the PCL driver. Now, if they will fix it is
another story. I never got any support from HP.

Of course you don't get support from HP. HP take your money and then are
not interested in you as they have already suckered you in.

If you are looking for quality laser printers you buy Kyocera and for ink
jets Canon.

And don't say I never listen to you Davey - my current printer is a Canon
(though it is dead it's being replaced with an 8-colour, top of the line A3+
unit).
