Ed Bennett has a solution for this problem. It was an answer for a stapling issue.
You might see if it works for you. You could look at your spooler settings too.
>From Ed.
Most versions of Publisher I've come across print merges in batches of 10
records.
There is a way you can set the number of records per batch using the
Registry (fix courtesy of KATMA)
Attached is a registry file which sets the batch size for Publisher 2002 to
1, so each record will have its own print job, which should allow the
stapler to staple correctly.
(The .reg file will work on Windows XP, but might not work on 98. If it
doesn't, use the instructions below)
Open registry using regedit.exe
Go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0 \Publisher\Printing
Create new "string value" called:
NumberOfRecordsPerBatch
Double click and set a value for your batch size (0, or 99999, in this
case).
