SYMPTOMS
When you print to a PostScript printer that reverses the order in which
the pages are printed, only the last page of the document may be printed.
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if page independence is disabled, causing the
PostScript code to include a command indicating the last page of the print
job on the last page of the document (which is printed first).
RESOLUTION
Enable page independence. To do so, follow these steps:
- Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Printers.
- Use the right mouse button to click the PostScript printer you are
using, and then click Document Defaults on the menu that appears.
- Click the Advanced tab.
- Double-click the Document Options branch to expand it, and then
double-click the PostScript Options branch to expand it.
- Click Page Independence, and then change the setting to Yes.
- Click OK.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows NT
version 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
