Printer won't collate

Hi,

I'm setting up a new printserver at work, running on W2012 R2.
This week I've encountered a problem; the printers won't sort/collate.
In Word 2016 I set my printjob properties to sort and in PDF readers I set the printjob to collate (adobe, foxit and nitro), but the documents get printed as 1-1-2-2-3-3 instead of 1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3.
This is happening on a Canon LBP6650.

I have tried to use different drivers, these are the ones I have tried:
Canon LBP6650 class driver (from WUpdate): doesn't collate
Microsoft PCL6 driver (from WUpdate): does collate, documents are printed wrong and not on both sides.
Canon generic PCL6 driver (from their website): not compatible with print server.
Canon UFR II B/W driver (from WUpdate): doesn't collate.
Canon LBP6650 light-drivers (from their website, used for thin-cliënts): doesn't collate.

I've also tried giving everyone all the printer permissions, didn't make any difference.
I've also tried to set the printer to use PCL5, PCL6 and UFR, but all of them still didn't collate.

This is a big issue at our company, because some people have to print 12-paged documents multiple times.
Almost all of our printers are this model and they are all having this issue.

I really don't know what to do anymore, so i could really use some help/suggestions.

I hope someone will have a suggestion that might fix this issue.
Thanks in advance.
