Computer prints blank pages before and after content

microsoft-officenetwork-printerprinting

This would seem like a pretty simple question but I have exhausted every idea I can come up with. I bought a brand new Dell Latitude E5410 not too long ago with Windows 7 OS. I installed office 2010 on the machine right away and have had a printing problem since day one. For some reason every time I print a page, a blank page prints out before and after the content print. This also applies to any other application such as notepad or printing an email. If I have a 6 page document, it still prints out one page before and after every content page. Meaning I get my 6 page document along with 12 blank pages.

The network printer is an HP LaserJet M2727 MFP series.

I can't figure out why this would be some sort of default setting or what would cause this printing configuration. I am the only computer on the network that has this problem and quite frankly I'm getting tired of it.

Can anyone help me figure this out or steer me in the right direction to correcting this problem?

OK, based on your response, that means that it has to do with your Printer and its settings, not the applications. One common place I would look is the separator page:

That is common to virtually all printers, but since I am not sure of what kind of printer you have, you might want to post that, and some screenshots of your printer settings (at least any you are not sure of).

I would also compare your settings with the settings of the same printer that works on another computer.
