Why is my organizer printing on both sides of the paper?

I do not see the option to only print on one side of the paper for the organizer.  I see one setting regarding this in the advanced printer options and it is off.  Any suggestions?

That is a function of the printer and not of the program. Which printer do you have? 

I would look at Windows Settings > Devices > Printers  > Find your printer and look at "Printing preferences" > For mine the setting is for Finishing > 1-sided or 2-sided

My guess is you have a default of two sided.

Thank you!  I changed that setting once and it defaulted back.  Next question - I recall the past three years not having to select my settings with each print - engagement letter, appointment versus no appointment organizer.  I remember my choices saving.  How do I do this?

In the Print Paper Organizer - select clients - click box for Organizer Settings... Set the choices and review the "Additional Organizer Pages" - Once you click OK those settings are saved for next time you print.
Next time do not click the box and just use Print then check the appropriate boxes (which should be saved for next time you do the process. The top dropdowns should be what you set up in the step above.
Once you click OK, you will be presented with printer options.
I generally print to pdf (or DMS) for my first few runs to save paper and get something to review.
Personally I use a very condensed questionnaire and do it all 2 sided. They then fit into a standard window envelope when folded. Most mail for a standard FOREVER stamp (up to 5 pages).

I am waiting for at least one more update on the program before printing. There are generally several bugs to be fixed.
I won't proforma until at least mid January.
