If I print something with 8 or 12 pages or whatever (even numbers) everything works great.
For 9 or 15 or whatever odd numbers it becomes sort of like a random number generator. Page 1 is ok but the backside where 2 should go may be blank as could be page 4. The last page prints on the very last page that should be blank.
If I have a 9 page document I can select pages 1-8 and then separately print just page 9 and it works good.

Hey @terry6,
I see that you are having some issues with printing from your Windows Vista PC to your Deskjet 1510. Now a printer only prints what the computer tells it to print, but I can help you find the issue on your PC.
Here's what we'll do:
- Turn the printer off.
- Close all programs on your PC.
- Open your Control Panel and then Printers and Faxes.
- Right click on the picture of the printer.
- Click on Remove Device.
- Repeat if you have any more copies of your Deskjet 1510 listed.
- Turn the printer on.
- If the printer did not appear in this window after turning on the printer and waiting a few minutes then click on Add Printer at the top.
- Follow the prompts to add the printer back.
- Try printing again.
This should sort out your issue with printing pages in the wrong order. If it does not then try the following:
- Uninstall and reinstall the printer.
- Uninstall and reinstall the sotware you are printing from.
- Try a different program.
If it does then please let other users know by clicking on Accept as Solution below my post. Likewise if you have any more questions please let me know.
I hope this helps and I hope you have a great weekend!
