My HP Photosmart Printer prints the pages in reverse order. How can I change it so that it prints starting with the first page of the document?

Hi nrCoqui32     

 

It seems you need to change the layout options in your printer preferences. By default this is usually set to print the last page of a document  first so the pages are in order for picking up  a complete multi page document from the printer.

 

Without knowing your operating system and exact printer model number I cannot give you detailed instructions

 

Open control panel then printers , right click on the printer and then click properties it will open a multi tabbed window.

In that window click on printing preferences which will open another window  called    Printer Name - printer properties

 

Click on the advanced tab and you should see  Layout options front to back or Back to front

Select the back to front  , then apply should cause the printer to print the 1st page of your document first.
