Minolta Magicolor 2300 DL with Vista x64?
I just got a Vista x64 computer and have a networked Minolta Magicolor 2300
DL. The Minolta site only has 32 bit drivers. Any ideas? Even Linux can print to this. Can I select an other 64 bit driver? Thanks, Kent |

Ask Minolta if they are going to write one. No other one will work.

-- Cari (MS-MVP) Windows Technologies - Printing & Imaging http://www.coribright.com/windows .... I sent an email to Minolta's customer support yesterday. The Vista 32-bit driver is many months old so it does not look like they are rushing to support x64. I was hoping the print interface was semi generic/standard. I was able to get Linux to work with this printer using a driver that was not specific to the printer model. I will post back if any good nows. Thanks, Kent |

I found a working Vista x64 Konica Minolta Magicolor 2300DL driver. '64bitdrivers.com:: Konica Minolta Magicolor 2300DL for XP x64' (http://64bitdrivers.com/driver.php?id=1490) 1. Control PanelHardware and SoundPrinterAdd Printer 2. Select Local Printer not Network Printer! 3. Create new port Standard TCP/IP port, port 9100 RAW. 4. Select "Have Disk" and browse to driver downloaded from 64bitdrivers.com Woot! -- Kent_Diego |

Yes, the Konica Minolta Magicolor 2300DL for XP x64 drivers will do the trick (and works quickly!) under Windows 7 x64 -provided- you create the TCP/IP port as directed here. Many thanks, and now I can keep my printer! Jeff -- jsandytn |

I've used the MLUU_DRV.inf furnished directly from Minolta. No good. Tried every combination of port assignments and drivers. No luck. Minolta says they're delivering a driver for 32-bit Windows 7 in June. Thanks alot. |
