Hi Jack,
BOTH and CPRINT (that started this) are used to print on both sides of
the paper.
A sideline is that you can set various options before starting the
printout of your file.
A quick way to add left blank spaces is to set a macro (my printer has
four available) with the font and the margins you want to use and then
choose the appropriate macro from the printer panel.

Ouch what a space filler on the HD.
Have a nice day,
Holger
