Looks like the MP510 insists on the x start being multiples of 0x20
(decimal 32) under the Windows driver.
This is for generation 2 devices, which this is --- I made a mistake
in writing it is a generation 1 device. Now the trick is to find out
why the code is not detecting this limitation (i.e., ascertain what
generation the backend thinks this machine is). Fun!
