Duplex Printing

Duplex Printing

(OP)
Is there any option in NX to enable duplex printing? My situation is if I have 2 drawing sheets in a part file, I want it to print double sided. From what I've been able to find it looks as though my options are either using a print initialization file, a postscript setup or export as a appended PDF and print from there. In my testing it appears as though even if I select two sheets from the print dialog and print them at the same time, NX issues it as two separate print jobs.

Has anyone had any success with duplex printing?


RE: Duplex Printing

(OP)
I have tried that through the printer properties, That is how I came to realization that NX issues each sheet as a separate print job and not one. I had also thought there might have been and option under under a printbuilder (nxopen) using some options in sourcebuilder, but i came up empty.

RE: Duplex Printing

Only other thing I do is print to PDF then print double sided from there. Sorry I could not help ya out. Enjoy the weekend.
