I have tried several things, but Windows always prints a different page for the second copy even if I select print two sided.
If I print more than onepage, Windows will print page 1 and 2 on one sheet and pages 1 and 2 again in the other sheet… even if I choose not to collate!
Is there a way to send a document and have the exact same thing be printed in both sides?

I realise this is rather cumbersome, but you could copy/paste the page onto a second page of the same document (use Control+Enter to insert a page break).
You need to set the orientation and print settings in each sheet separately. Manually, you'd use the options on the Page Layout ribbon for that.
Sheet1 can be portrait with print area set from A1 to G30, for example. Sheet2 can be landscape with print area set from A1 to Q26, for example and scaled to print on one page.
Select each sheet individually and see the correct print preview.
Select both Sheet1 and Sheet2, or use "Print Entire Workbook" and the print preview will show Sheet1 in portrait and Sheet2 in landscape.
Here are some screenshots of the print preview, page 1 and page 2.

I haven't used Adobe reader for years, but Foxit reader (www.foxitsoftware.com) which I use has a print box similar to Office, where you can specify a page list, so you simply specify 1,1,2,2.... That works perfectly with double-sided printing.
Foxit reader is freeware.
