HP does have the fix and they are working to get the 20 drivers that have
the same issue onto Windows Update. In the meantime the HP driver developer who determined the issue told me I could hand out the fix mail me directly since I can't send the file using outlook. alanmo microsoft.com -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;[ln];kbhowto This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Duplex printing bug head to toe - HP printer
Hi Alan,
I'm having the same problem with my HP Deskjet 5150. Actually, I just discovered that the duplexing feature was suddenly active after reading this newsgroup. Is there really some progress on this issue? I was about to buy a different printer to get duplexing back.

Alan, Since many of us seem to have the same problem (I have DJ5550), can you maybe post the drivers as an interim solution to one of the file sharing web sites (with a Beta disclaimer etc...) and post the link?
