I have a report containing 2 pages. After previewing the report I want to
print using a toolbar icon, but one page at a time. This is because the 2nd
page has to be printed on the blank side of the first page. The users do not
want to go through the Menu - File - Print and select page 1 of 1 and then
repeat the steps for Page 2.

Thanks
 
The enhanced Printer Control facilities that appeared in Access 2002
do not (AFAIK) include the ability to print one page of a report at a
time. You could probably do it in VBA via the Windows API, but I
wouldn't!

If the Report output divides predictably between page 1 and page 2, I
would simply split it into two new reports and have your toolbar print
the two halves in sequence, separated by a MessageBox with a prompt to
turn the paper over. If it doesn't, you have more of a challenge, and
I would probably see if it could sensibly be made to divide in that
way.
