PPT2000: Second Copy of a Printed Presentation Does Not Start on a New Page (251391)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint 2000
This article was previously published under Q251391 SYMPTOMS
If you print multiple copies of a presentation containing an odd number of slides, and the Duplex and Flip on Long Edge (collate) options are selected, the first page of the even copies (second, fourth, sixth, and so on) is printed on the reverse side of the last page of the previous copy.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain Microsoft Office 2000 Service Release 1/1a (SR-1/SR-1a).
To obtain SR-1/SR-1a, click the
article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
245025 OFF2000: How to Obtain and Install Microsoft Office 2000 Service Release 1/1a (SR-1/SR-1a)
To temporarily work around this problem, use any of the following methods:
- Print only one copy of the presentation at a time instead of printing multiple copies.
- Turn off the Collate option.
- If you are printing to a Printer Command Language (PCL) printer, add a blank slide at the end of the presentation, so that the presentation contains an even number of slides.
- If you are printing to a PostScript printer, add a blank slide containing white text at the end of presentation so the presentation contains an even number of slides. PostScript does not print the blank slide unless the slide contains text or an object.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
This problem was corrected in Microsoft Office 2000 SR-1/SR-1a.
