You would have to read it in a mirror. What could the problem be here?

  1. Look good on all your printer settings i.e. properties and I'm sure you have it checked to print in "Mirror Image" Click all advanced and printer tabs

    There is such a selection on some printers

    Start

    Settings

    Printers and Faxes

    Right click on the printer icon

    Click properties

    Click printing preferences

    Click basic tab

    Remove check from Mirror Image


  2. Maybe try reloading the driver.

  3. maybe its just a little confused.. poor thing  :/

  4. in your printer properties the option "print mirror image" has been selected.  

    From your print screen hit properties, you will find print an option for print mirror image under paper selection, uncheck that box and try again.

  5. 1.  It may be program specific problem or it could be driver corruption.

    2.  Does the print preview show correctly or mirrored?

    3.  Does the printer test page print normally?

    4.  What Operating System are you running and which printer do you have (always helpful, especially if it is a driver issue).

    --Will watch for additional details and will update then.

  6. You may have change a setting in the Options list and now it's printing Backwards!

    Find you're Manual or go Online to find how to correct it and get it printing in the right direction,..like it should be.

  7. print preview or settings depending on where youre printing from. or it could be printer settings. but its just switched, its a tool so if someone was printing on transfer paper, for example, they can put their design onto clothing or bags or whatever and have it appear the right direction. if you look around youll be able to switch it back.

  8. Maybe you activated the da vinci journal option or put the paper backwards by accident.
