    PIXMA MP160 printer
    Is there a way I can get my PIXMA printer to print odd pages only and then even pages only?

    Possibly. This functionality tends to be supported by the application doing the printing although some drivers also offer it. Check your application settings or the driver properties when printing.

    I am trying to print a 97 page report from the internet and want to print on both sides of the page. As you suggested must I copy it into word in order to print even then odd pages? I know I can print page one then turn paper over and print page 2 but this is very time consuming. Thank you for trying to help.

    Ah. If you hit PRINT, the printing window comes up.

    Under "Print Range," click on *PAGES*, and then under the SUBSET menu, click it and click on ODD PAGES ONLY, then EVEN PAGES ONLY.

    Thank you ever so much. Once I got it in the PDF format the even or odd pages came up.
    This will save me lots of time can't thank you enough.

    The Acrobat reader doesn't offer the option to print only odd or even pages. So you would need to convert the file to Word or some other word processor that has that option.

    You can try copy and pasting from the PDF into Word or look for a conversion utility.
