Yes, same problem with MacFin 2003 and HP LJ 5000n. I was shocked by it, and then remembered having seen a post about it. It seems that both Finale and HP drivers are trying to help so much that it all gets bungled. I didn't even try reverse order printing in Finale--HP will automatically print last page to first, no telling what would happen if I told Finale to print in reverse! I ended up printing single runs and using a copy machine to copy and collate. What a nightmare!!
If anyone finds some answers, please report to the list!!
