Printing large workbooks duplex

I have a workbook with over 40 tables, charts, graphs,
etc. I want to print it duplex except that Excel will
occasionally skip the back end of the two-sided page.
It appears related to the fact that Excel breaks up
the large print stream into multiple smaller segments
(judging by the multiple images and sizes displayed on
the print control screen). When this break occurs
across a page (e.g., seg 1 end on the front side of a
page) the printer ejects the page and begins a new one.
This causes a blank back-page to be inserted. Is there
a way to prevent this from happening?
TIA
