The directions don't specify whether the page number is supposed to be the DOCUMENT page number (i.e. the number at the bottom of the printed page) or the FORMATTED page number (i.e. its physical position in the document). Printing results seem to vacillate between them irregularly.

This tip also works for double sided printing on a printer without that capability.
Print odd pages: 1,3,5,etc.
After printing, turn pages over and reverse order so page 1 is face down to be printed first.
Then print: 2,4,6,etc.
