I am trying to print a pdf in half letter size double sided.    I can print single sided half letter, (it is slightly smaller than half letter), but I get this error when trying double sided.  I have tried printing at 65% or using the half letter setting in the page setup in the printer box.

"This printer only supports two-sided printing for certain paper sizes.

To print on both sides remove the paper from the printer and load longer paper"

This error actually makes no sense since the page is reduced so doesn't need longer paper.

 

I changed a few settings and saved as a new pdf.  Then I could get it to print duplex half letter without the error, but the front and back are not lined up and are alot smaller than half letter.  Both print left justified and so can't trim and use.  Is there a way to center justify both on the paper and have it print the correct size? 

Would appreciate any help as I have a job to complete.
