Duplex printing bug head to toe - HP printer

Oh and HP only gives me the gpd files I ask for from user requests. I never

HP OfficeJet d155 with 2 trays and duplex unit.

Confirm that in Vista I am unable to select any form of duplexing - it
flags an error with automatic media type, but even setting that to a
manual media type I cannot select duplex.

I've been having the same problem with my hp 7310. Tried HP's tech
support, but did not have an answer for me. Can you please let me know
what the fix is for this problem?
