Bob i received your solution for the duplexing problem and finally it works perfectly
many thanks

I too am running Vista Home Premium 64bit and found that I was having
the same "head to toe" problem with my HP 6110xi. After spending about
an hour trying to solve the problem myself, I ended up at this forum.
So I sent an email along to Bob Headrick.

Bob, thanks for such a quick reply including the patch and
instructions. I applied the patch and am now happily able to print
with my duplexer and no more "head to toe" problem.

Thanks again,

Brett

I am running Vista 32-Bit with HP Officejet 7310 and having the same
"flipped" page when duplexing. I am not a real "techie" and certainly
cannot afford another printer. But after contacting Bob and receiving
the Patch mentioned above, it works GREAT!

Thank goodness for helpful people like you, Bob --- THANKS!!!

Had the same issue with the 7310 flipping the pages in duplex, two-sided
mode. Alan sent me his patch -- a single "gpd" file that replaces the
existing 7310 gpd file. Relatively painless once you know where to
place the file (and stop/restart the spooling service)

Thanks Alan!

Looks like I declared success too soon. The gpd changeout worked.
However, I found last night that HP Solution Center refuses to open
because it can't find the printer. Also, the printer has disappeared
from the computer's list of printers. I have no reason to believe the
gpd change caused this. If anyone has advice, I'd appreciate it.

The HP solution is to install a "temporary print driver...until HP finds a
permanent solution." Instructions are posted here:
