Default Double side printing problem


Word 2002 and Brother printer

I have a 270 page document that when I send to my WiFi connected Brother printer will only print one-sided even when the printer is set to print on both sides.

It is some weird code embedded in this document because other word documents sent from the same windows 10 PC to this same printer print correctly on both sides!

What could be wrong with this particular Word document?

Thanks.

Normally, Word would use the printer default settings as long as you haven't changed the setting for the particular session. If you restart Word (be sure to close all open Word windows if there is more than one), then does it print correctly?

As a workaround, save the Word document as a PDF and then print the PDF.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I just thought it was some weird code embedded in the document.

Thanks.
