I have closed this as invalid while I do more work investigating. Using
the latest version of hplip improves things. Then only a very small
amount is clipped off the bottom. This may be a local printer hardware
related problem.

However the main reason I raised this bug was to clean away some of the
uncertainity in investigating duplex printing related problems with gui
applications such as Evince and Adobe reader. Both of these do not
shrink pages properly when asked to in the print options, but the
clipping is different in each case.

Setting LogLevel debug in cupsd.conf shows that the fit-to-page option
is not being passed on to the filters in these cases.

For information more detailed logging can be enabled by setting
hpLogLevel 1 in cupsd.conf this logging is directed to the systen
logging daemon (rsyslogd in later ubuntu versions).

Title:
  Photosmart_6510.ppd A4.Duplex PageSize shifts Postscript userspace 3mm
  up page

Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  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.

  Ubuntu 14.04
