You can setup the bin to be used for first and subsequent pages in page
setup without the need for section breaks. Problem is that the bins are
applied according to the printer driver and that may vary with different
printers. Word does not store printer information with the document, but
reformats according to the current driver.
Given the low price of printers and the amount lawyers charge, wouldn't it
be a good idea to buy three printers of the same type?
