Note: You cannot set the Collate property after a document has been started. The effect of setting the Collate property depends on the driver supplied by the printer manufacturer.

The ErrorCode property will be set to -5015 or -5016 if the printer does not support this property. For more information, see the manufacturer's documentation for the specific printer driver.
