On or about 7/31/2005 10:37 PM a carrier pigeon from George H.

I have never seen a TMG report behave in this manner. They
have always been sent to the printer in the logical order of the
pages. There is no option in the report definitions to change page
order. There does not seem to be any means in TMG to access the
printer driver option either.

My printer drivers have options for "print last page first".

For my HP6122 (which does have a "duplexer" module
installed, so it does double sided directly and wouldn't work for
what you describe as the second page of an FGS, for example, would be
printed on the back of the first sheet) going through

Start/Settings/Printers and Faxes
<right click>Printing Preferences

brings up a form with three tabs: Setup, Features, Color. The
Features tab has the check box to activate the duplexer and, in the
lower right corner a spin-box for "Number of Copies" with a check box
for "Start Printing from Last Page".

My Epson SP960 has tabs: Main, Page Layout, Maintenance. The
Main tab has a check box for "Reverse Order"

If you can't find the printer setting that is causing this
odd print order, I'd suggest you use "Screen" (since I presume you
are during direct "Printer" report generation). From the screen
preview, check the number of pages, then hit the print button on the
preview screen after setting the paper in the printer.
