Duplex printing

Hi,

I've been trying for quite some time to get duplex
printing working with .Net Framework 1.0 (I haven't tested
with 1.1 yet). As far as I can tell, I'm correctly
setting the PrinterSettings of the PrintDocument. I've
also tried setting the
PrintDocument.DefaultPageSettings.PrinterSettings.

The network printer I'm using supports duplexing, and I've
successfully constructed a simple MFC app that duplexes
correctly.

Does anyone have any ideas, or know of any issues I should
be aware of? Does anything special have to be done with
the print event handler?

Thanks
 
I have a set of programs that allows this built against 1.0 and it works
fine for my duplex printers (1 Lexmark Optra and 1 Apple LW8500). I don't
do anything special but I have the user set duplex using the PrintDialog and
just pass the resulting PrinterSettings to my routines. Normally all this
is done to a PrintPreviewDialog and the users then print the results, if
desired, using the print button on the dialog.

Just another thought for you to check. Are you setting the correct edge for
duplexing (long/short) as well?
