Double Sided Printing
I'm in school for Graphic Design and printing doubled sided. Very important. I have Illustrator CS2 and an Epson 1280. I'm printing large and cutting down for border free packages and stuff like that.
I always have trouble align my double sided prints. I googled the Subject and found one thing that said you can't print double sided in Illustrator. You have to use Acrobat. Now is this true?
Also do you have any tips for double sided prints? thank you.

Huh?nWhy not manually re-feed the paper into the printer? Or are you worried about the prints on both sides of the paper 'matching up'?

it all depends on what printer you are printing to and if it supports duplexing
if not - say your image is A4, put it into a A3 document size (centred) and print onto A3 paper with cropmarks.
when you print on the back this gives your room to manually adjust the position of the image in illustrator until you get it spot on (you wont get it absolutley correct but it will be close enough).
