and now i want to print them.

Sorry for the english.
Thanks in advance.

this don't print in full duplex.
this print 4 pages in 4 papers, and i want full duplex, tis is, 4 pages in 2 papers
 
I have to configure the properties os the printer.
word don't have de possibility to print directly in full duplex, only it is possible in the printer properties.
 
I have a similar need. Here is where my thinking has got to.

Printing in duplex is a freature that some printers have and some printers do not have. Therefore printing in duplex must involve interaction with the printer driver.
Do printer drivers present their functions as Objects? If yes, what type of interface do printer drivers have? ActiveX? Automation? (VbScript can only work with Automation Objects.)

Sorry if I have raised more questions and given no answers but perhaps someone can help

I will watch this thread with interest.
 
>Do printer drivers present their functions

In terms of their capabilities, yes they do - but not easiy available to VB Script

>as objects

Sadly not in a way that makes things easy for VB Script (I'd be more than happy to find someone that can contradict me on this)
 
Try this:
Code:
Set dfp=wordobj.Dialogs(88) 'wdDialogFilePrint
dfp.Show

Hope This Help

I want an automatic process, this is, nobody have to do anything.

How i do that.
 
Have you tried to create a new printer with the properties you want as default and then use it in word ?
