Nope.  I just launched Word 4.00B and did a few tests.  What is probably wrong
is that the problematic page break has had the "Hidden Text" style applied to 
it.  You will probably find that the following are true:

	1. "Show Hidden Text" is checked in the "Preferences" dialog.
	   Because of this, the page break behaves as normal in all screen
	   displays.

	2. "Print Hidden Text" is unchecked in the "Print" dialog.
	   Because of this, the page break doesn't "print", or more accurately
	   the page break is ignored when the document is printed.

Solution:
Select that page break, then choose "Character" from the "Format" menu and 
uncheck the "Hidden" style.

If this doesn't solve it, then I'm stumped because manual page breaks work like
a charm on my copy of Word 4.00B.  The test I just did was a 3-page thing
consisting of nothing but:

Page 1
[page break]
Page 2
[page break]
Page 3

If I "hide" the second page break I get the symptoms you describe.  "Page 1"
appears on the first page, then "Page 2" and "Page 3" both appear on page 2,
even though Print Preview tells me there are three pages.  If I unhide the
second page break, everything prints as it should.
