Anyone know how to force a print on the back of a page?

On the last page of the report, I have to print on the back of this page.

I'm doing MSDN and Google searches w/ no hits!

Thanks!

well i'm guessing you have to turn the paper around in the printer when you get to the last page.
how else would you print to the back of it??

You could also get one of those super duper printers that has a setting for paper saving (and for keeping the tree huggers happy) that prints on both sides of the page for you automatically.

I'm not sure if you can set it for the last page only though.

Why do you have to print on the back of the last page?

To identify the last page you can use the "Page 3 of 3" type functionallity in the page footer of the report.
That way the recipient of the report will know for sure which is the last page of the report.
