Re: Duplex binding direction

Hi Paul,

Do you have any plans to synchronize to LaserWriter8 except for the duplexing?
For example, I can't select "first page from" function when I selected n-up at
LaserWriter8. But, I can select both at the same time with OS X. Is this action
which is different from LaserWriter8 made synchronism in the future? Can I think
that all of the action which is diffferent from LaserWriter8 will become the same
in the future?

Thank you.

Osamu
