Excel VBA double sided printing
HI,
How do i set a double sided printing via VBA? my default on my printer preferences is already double sided, but when my file is opened by another then goes back to me, and i print using vba as well-- it will print on just one side.
Thanks!
RE: Excel VBA double sided printing
Hi Ida,
Thank you for the forum question.
I have come across this question before. I checked online and unfortunately the printer options for duplex etc. are not set by Excel they fall outside of VBA'a control.
There might be a way to do accessing the printer's API but it would be fairly complicated, and would depend if the printer manufacturer has published the controls.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help on this occasion.

Hi Ida,
It can be coded in other languages (C#, C++, F#, and VB)
