Thanks a lot! Duplex printing now comes with the correct edge flipped,
and print quality is good and fast.

However: I just tried printing a 4-page document with the default
settings (all I changed from the default settings upon installing the
printer with hp-setup was to switch on the duplex option): it first
output a sheet with page 1 on top, page 2 underneath; then a sheet with
page 3 on top, page 4 underneath. Hence, the pages are sorted
incorrectly (the document is in order: 3,4,1,2). This is probably an
issue with face-up vs. face-down, or printing odd sides before/after
even sides. Still not ideal. (Can probably be fixed easily by tinkering
with the driver options).
