When I print on both sides, page 1, 3, 5 etc are perfect.
But on page 2, 4, 6 etc the distance the text is printed in relation to the top of the document, seem to be "random".
I prefer text to begin at the same distance from the top of the document on all pages.
I do not have the slightest idea what causes this.
Would be happy if someone know how to correct this.
Thanks
