HP Laserjet 5200 Print Driver Defaults to Print Duplex Incorrectly

I'm struggling with a print setting for my HP Laserjet 5200dtn. It's configured as a network shared printer and users are complaining that the printer prints duplex by default when it shows simplex.

When I go into the print driver preferences, the "Factory Defaults" show up as simplex but when I change the settings and change it back to Factory Defaults it changes to duplex.

ANY IDEAS on how I can have the "Factory Defaults" print simplex?

do you have the latest driver on print server for this device?

are the clients using a different driver not pushed from server
also do a firmware update to printer

I think they are up-to-date.

The driver is "HP Universal Printing PCL 5 (v5.2).
Firmware is 20121015 08.200.2
5.6 is new driver
8.210.4 is new firmware
On shared printer

Go to Devices and Printers| right click the printer | select Printer Properties | click the Advanced tab | Printing Defaults button |  Configure your desired settings |click OK.
are clients added from group policy or individual
They are added via netlogon script
