Public bug reported:

The default hpcups driver ppd for HP Photosmart 6510 printers when used
with the A4.Duplex PageSize (or any other related PageSize) shifts the
Postscript userspace coordinate system 3mm up the page on all pages of
single sided prints and on odd numbered pages of duplex prints. Even
numbered pages of duplex prints are correctly positioned on the paper.

This can be seen by printing that attached test file a4test.pdf using
lpr on an HP 6510 printer and probably on other similar printers using
the same basic driver and ppd layout.

lpr -P Photosmart_6510 -o PageSize=A4.Duplex -o Duplex=None a4test.pdf

and

lpr -P Photosmart_6510 -o PageSize=A4.Duplex -o Duplex=DuplexNoTumble
a4test.pdf

This is making it very difficult to diagnose/resolve the other (possibly
gtk related) clipping problems when duplex printing using this driver.
