Alex, for Duplex printing you have to choose the "A4Duplex" page size
instead of "A4" (or "LetterDuplex" instead of "Letter"). If your
application's printing dialog allows changing the page size, change it
appropriately and you should be able to print. If not, check whether you
can choose the page size at other places, like in "File"/"Page Setup"
(choose your printer in the first drop-down and then the "Duplex" page
size in the second drop-down) or "Format"/"Page". If the "Duplex" page
sizes are not accessible you are out of luck with that application (the
application has a bug then, please report it).
Everyone, please try the HPIJS drivers on Karmic. For that open system-
config-printer ("System"/"Administration"/"Printing"), right-click your
printer's icon and choose "Properties". In the upcoming dialog stay on
the first page ("Settings"), click the "Change" button in the "Make and
Model" line and in the upcoming wizard keep make and model but choose in
the driver field (second step, on the right) the driver with "hpijs".
With this driver the options will look different, especially you will
have every page size only once. Please tell how well printing works for
you with this driver.
