P1606DN duplex printing upside down

‎11-26-2011 01:52 PM

HP P1606DN LaserJet

Printer FW: 20110826 - taken from configuration sheet output form printer

Software Rev 20110402 (5.0.1.35248) - taken from printer properties dialog box, about tab

Printing from a HP Pavillion dv6700 running Windows Vista 32-bit Home Premium SP2 over the local area network.

 

Today, I installed a new printer (P1606DN) on my home ethernet network.  I had no problems with installation.  After, I installed the driver software (using HP smart install), I had a problem with duplex printing.  One side of the page is upside down relative to the other (also known as head to tail).  I found several hits on Google regarding this type of problem, but none of the proposed solutions have worked for me so far.  I have tried the following...

  1. I tried changing the "Flip Pages Up" box but it did not change the print job.
  2. I have updated the HP software by downloading the latest install image from the HP website.
  3. I have updated the printer's firmware.
  4. I have updated the printer's HP smart install image.
  5. I have manually deleted the drivers from Windows through the print service dialog box.

Nothing seems to work, and I always end up with the same problem. Can anyone offer another suggestion?

 

Chad
