HP7410 Portrait duplex always prints Head-to-foot

Vista installed the driver for my HP7410, but when I try to print portrait,
duplex it always comes out head-to-foot instead of head-to-head. I didn't
have this problem using the HP drivers in WindowsXP.

I have a fix from HP for many models of HP inket printers with an issue
in Vista of printing the back side upside down. If you need a patch for
one of the following HP printers please send me an email to
bobh@xxxxxx with the printer model and Vista Duplex in the title.

Patches are available for the following:

Business InkJet 2200/2250
Business InkJet 2230/2280
Business InkJet 1000

Color InkJet cp1700 (also addresses A3 and tabloid paper size issue)

DeskJet 5550 series
DeskJet 5600 series
DeskJet 9800 printer

HP Digital Copier 410

OfficeJet D series
OfficeJet 6100 series
OfficeJet 7100 series
OfficeJet 7200/7300/7400 series

Photosmart 2600/2700 series
Photosmart 3100/3200/3300 series
Photosmart 8100/8400 series
Photosmart 8200 series

Bob,

Thank you for this fix. I have applied it for my cp1700 print driver and
now the Tabloid and Super B page sizes are listed under the paper selection
drop downs (I didn't have to manually define them) and duplex is working.

Aftrer applying this fix, I became extremely frustrated in attempting to get
it to work in Word. Everything was printing about 10 magnitudes of size too
big. The problem was a result of my trying to print in draft mode.
Switching to normal mode fixed that problem.

Obviously, HP didn't put a lot of effort into preparing their print drivers
and their technical people do not seem to communicate with their email
support division. The email support division had me try various other print
drivers (for other printer models), none of which worked with the cp1700.

Thank you again for your assistance.

Thanks for the fix. I was extremely frustrated with this duplex problem
on my OfficeJet 7310 on Vista Home Premium when it worked fine from XP,
and the inability to find anything about it on HP's website. Your
instructions were very clear and worked perfectly.
