" How about sorting out odd pages, interleaving blank sheets including

" of odd?  Ugly as hell and painful for dissertation-length stuff,

Rather than do that, just print two copies. After printing one entire
copy, rearrange the pages so they feed into the printer in this order:
2,1,4,3,6,5.... Then print another copy on the back sides. As the former
page 2 goes through, the new page 1 prints on the back. As the former
1 goes through, the new page 2 prints on the back. Thus you get two
originals, both of which are back to back. Works great for portrait
pages if you can justify printing two copies.
