Vista - HP Business Inkjet 1000 driver malfunction

HP Business Inkjet 1000 driver malfunction

My HP Business Inkjet 1000 with autoduplex unit used to work correctly until
very recently. I have tried removing it and reinstalling but still get the
same problem.

When I print two pages using the automatic duplex unit the second page
prints the wrong way up, regardless of whether I check the 'Flip Pages Up'
box on the Finishing tab or leave it unchecked. Checking or unchecking the
'Rotate by 180 degrees' box also makes no difference. Using the preset for
duplex printing also makes no difference.

This means that when turning the page as I would on a book I then have to
flip the page about a horizontal axis in order to read it.

The other problem I have noticed is that when printing four pages using the
duplex unit it prints page 1, then 3, then 2 then page 4. In other words the
first sheet has odd numbered pages on each side and the other sheet contains
the even number pages.

If anyone can help resolve this problem I will be very grateful.

Did it work properly using the inbox Vista drivers? I assume it worked
properly on Vista.

Re: HP Business Inkjet 1000 driver malfunction


Alan,
Thanks for replying. Sorry, I have no idea what inbox Vista drivers are.
It used to work correctly on my Vista business computer a few weeks ago, but
now it does not work properly. Possibly an update is the cause of the
problem, but trying to identify which one would be difficult as I have no
idea how long ago it was when I could print correctly.

RE: HP Business Inkjet 1000 driver malfunction


Why does the printer driver on my Vista Home Premium computer work
correctly, but the one on my Vista Business computer does not when I print to
the same printer, both times using it as a local printer?

Re: HP Business Inkjet 1000 driver malfunction

what is the driver version on the Business machine
launch printmanagement.msc
navigate to the Drivers area. There will be a driver version field.

HP did send me an updated GPD for the device but no one has ever complained
about the duplex orientation problem on this device

I'll send you the file but you need to contact me directly

Thanks for the pointer.

I've not been there before -- I'm intrigued that Drivers shows that all
(HP LJ2200d and HP PS 8250 are Microsoft drivers ver 6 .... 16386
although I know I installed the HP Fully Featured software in the
correct sequence of software before connecting the printer.

Any thoughts on this?

The version number is obtained from the inf file.

I meant why Microsoft gets credited and they have MS type version
numbers when we argue that Microsoft does not write them and it is the
responsibility of the printer manufacturer, ie HP in this case.

I'm in XP at the moment or I would double check the printer properties
and see what they say but they usually list a bunch of HP files.

Re: HP Business Inkjet 1000 driver malfunction

It's more to differentiate where the drivers came from. Print Management by
default displays the Provider information. Add the Manufacturer column and
you will see which company supplied the driver.
