I have set up all my printers on the Vista Ultimate 64 bit network All
printers are listed as network printers and available. I have a laptop running xp pro 32. Have download the relevant update to allow the laptop to be seen on network, Vista sees it and all is ok with that but i cannot get the laptop to see the printers on the network even though it can see it. Any advise anyone would be appreciated. Thanks |

The print server needs drivers for any OS that might use it. So I know
nothing of x64 (because I want things that work) but this is how printing normally works. So I woiuld guess you need to install XP 32 bit printer drivers onto the x64 (for 32 bit XP OS to download from and use). "Phil Harris" wrote in message ...
