I have posted this issue before with no results, but since I am out here on
another mission, I thought I would repost in hopes that something new has
come up. If I have the wrong forum someone please cross post for me.

I have two computers. Both run IE7 and have a Lexmark X9350 printer
installed to them. One runs XP SP2 and the other runs Vista Home Premium
SP1. All is well on the XP computer. However, on the Vista computer I cannot
get duplex (two-sided) printing to work on anything I print from IE7. It
will work from Adobe, Windows Mail, Word, Excel, and other applications.
Just not from IE7. The printer properties are set to default to duplex and I
have double checked that any properties specified on the printer within IE7
are specified as duplex. All Lexmark updates for Vista for this model of
printer are installed.

Lexmark has not been able to provide a solution and suggests that it is a
Vista problem. I am inclined to agree after comparing the configurations of
the two computers. So I post this here in hopes that someone might have a
suggestion for a fix or a setting that I might be missing.

I just printed from Vista/IE7 to an HP full duplex printer.
It works OK.

I would suggest you reinstall your printer drivers.

If that doesn't help, try with a different printer manufacturer.
 
I've reinstalled the printer many times always with the same result. However
I will see about trying it with a different printer manufacturer, except
everyone in our family has a Lexmark. :-) Perhaps I can borrow one from a
neighbor. I'll report back.

Any other suggestions anyone?
