I have an HP Laserjet 1300. I used to be able to check the box "print on
both sides" and the driver I had would let me do it manually. For some
reason it stopped working, I have used all the drivers on the HP site they
recommend for Vista (none are really 100% supported). Does anyone have the
magic driver to solve this problem?

Under VISTA or previously say under XP?

The out of the box drivers in VISTA itself are often not fully
featured.

What did you download from the HP website?

If it was the PCL driver, try PCL5 instad of PCL6

If all else fails install the XP software package -- again clean up
first and unplug the printer -- by right mouse clicking on the filename
that starts the installation, selecting Properties / Compatibility / XP
with SP2 and check the Run as Administrator box if it is there and OK
your way out.

Good luck.

Ignore this post of mine -- went in wrong place!
