Can the Manual Duplex Add-in be used with holiday postcard ?

Question:
I downloaded the plugin to help me out of a fustrating situation. I havecreated a postcard, and wish to print it full-bleed, four to a sheet.However, my printer (Canon i9100) for reasons best known to itself, won'tallow duplex printing when full bleed is selected but, if I don't selectfull bleed (and it's not 'full' full-bleed, either, it's only 25% - fullbleed is a sliding scale) the wording at the bottom of the card is cut off(and it doesn't matter what the point size is). I'm sure in the previousrevision of the driver this wasn't an issue, but I can't find it now to testit.

However, when I select the plugin I receive this: -

"Manual duplex requires at least two pages and does not work with foldedpublications"

This has two pages (a front, with the photo, and a back with the usualthings you find on the back of a holiday postcard) so, therefore, it mustqualify as a "folded publication" - odd, considering that postcards aren'tfolded...

Is there a way round this or am I just going to have to remain frustrated?

This is annoying as the client wants them *BEFORE* Easter (and he onlyplaced the order last Friday!)

Answer: Canon has a driver for your printer with a March, 2004 timestamp. Might help..Lots of support documents too.http://www.usa.canon.com/html/conCprTSIndex.jsp
