PrinterSettings.CanDuplex appears to not be working
-
Generating a small printing program. I have Brother color laser printer that can duplex print. However, when I get the CanDuplex value, it returns False:
pd.PrinterSettings.CanDuplex
The interesting thing is that checking for color capability works just fine:
pd.PrinterSettings.SupportsColor
Accessing the printer via conventional MS Office applications (as well as other applications like Acrobat) has no problem identifying that the printer can print in duplex. Thoughts?
Pound to fit, paint to match

"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I
