I have my printer defaults set to print double-sided. However, I do have a
couple of documents that I ALWAYS need to print one-sided. Is there any way
to set the defaults for just these documents so the printer default is
over-ridden, and they print single-sided? Otherwise I often forget and end up
having to print the document twice.

Thanks!

Since this setting is usually in the printer Properties, the answer is no
for at least versions through Word 2007. It would appear from another
posting that there is a setting in Word 2010 that attempts to accomplish
this, but it seems not to work reliably, at least not on a network printer.

If your printer accepts PCL commands, you may be able to use a PRINT field
at the start of the document. A PRINT field is simply a type of field that
allows you to send instructions directly to the printer.

There are 3 possible data values for duplex setting: PRINT 27"&l0S" simplex
PRINT 27"&l1S" vertical duplex . PRINT 27"&l2S" horizontal duplex
(bookformat)

The codes after PRINT are 27 (escape), double quote, ampersand, lowercase L,
0, 1 or 2, uppercase S and finally terminated with a double quote.

Thus for simplex you would insert the following field :
{ PRINT 27"&l0S" }

OR

It would also be possible to modify the print settings by intercepting the
print routine with a macro in the document's template. For this to work the
user would need access to the documents template at print time, and you
would probably need to set up a copy of the printer driver configured for
single sided printing to switch to. See
http://www.gmayor.com/fax_from_word.htm for some examples.
