Not sure how this is possible unless the club face is open 30° and slides off the end of the driver

Believe me. Yes, it is possible! That's why the number in the OP didn't quite make sense to me. If his Driver swing is 6* right of target and the clubface is 4* right, that should be a nice little draw! If the numbers match up, 6 and 6, then you just get a dead push right, not a fade or a slice.

Barnum, I think you need to go to another facility and check on another machine just to make sure things are kosher! I'd also have someone check your clubface alignment at address. I can't tell you how many guys I've seen address the ball with the clubface pointing to right field! Me included!

I think you may want to look at it a little different. The laws of ball flight have been looked at quite differently in the last few years. When I'm hitting it poorly I tend to leave it out right or hit flip hooks. To cure this I swing a little more out in front of me if that makes any sense. You may try the drill where you put a head cover between your feet and the ball. The head cover should run parallel to your target line. The head cover should be a few inches back away from the ball. Now swing without hitting the head cover. You cannot swing nearly as much in to out. Hope this helps.

@span3636: 
Yes, that's good advice. I've been using that and other drills to avoid getting too much inside-out.
In fact, nowadays my drives goes either straight-fade, pull-straight or pull-fade (in worst case pull-slice).
So my inside-out is probably corrected (or even hyper-corrected), and squaring the club-face is the main problem now.
