My HP Deskjet 882C printer worked fine with my old
Dimension desktop running Windows 98, but since moving to
a new computer running XP (HE), my printer will no longer
print duplex. I have a 16 page Brochure created in
Publisher 98 and can no longer print it out. HP says the
driver in XP won't support double-sided printing. How can
a move to "better" technology reduce the quality and
features of a printer? How can I restore duplex printing
to my printer?
HELP!!!

HP states that that the driver for 882 is built into XP.
There is no driver to download. Whenever I bootup XP, I
always get a message that HP 882c has been found (even
though the driver operates perfectly with XP). There is
np getting rid of this per MSFT knowledge base. HP,
again: no help.
