I've never been able to get it to access all the features available on my dj990CXi, one of which is duplex settings. Apart from your solution, you can often get around it by saving as an open document format then opening it in kword to print. Whenever possible I use kprinter. It gives me the best printout options, including enscript support for booklet printing and many other options. I've persuaded firefox to use it, but I gave up on any hope of getting openoffice to either give me the options natively or to output to kprinter. Anne
