When I copy a multi-page document using the automatic feeder, the page order is reversed. I don't wish to take each page out and fix the order while the document is being copied.
IS THERE A SOLUTION TO FIX THIS REVERSE ORDER PROBLEM ON MY HP OJ PRO 6978 PRINTER???

I FOUND A SOLUTION!!!
Since I was copying one-sided pages, I found a way to get my printer to maintain the original page order when copying a multi-page document via the auto document feeder.
Unfortunately, the process creates a lot of wasted work for the printer.
The process is simple: place the document in the feeder pages up in the original order. Select the 2-sided to 2-sided option.
PS- If you are copying 2-sided to 2-sided, the original order is maintained. I will leave it to one of you to figure out how to make 2-sided input into 1-sided output without reversing the original order of the pages.
The result is a face-down printed copy, in the original order.
