You must have a special version, on my Win7 it’s printmanagement.msc ☺ From: Steven M. Caesare [mailto:scaes...@caesare.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2010 6:07 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Printers
The “printmanagament.msc” snap in on your local Win7 workstations can manage both 32 bit and 64 bit drivers on 64 bit print servers as well. -sc From: Tom Miller [mailto:tmil...@hnncsb.org] Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2010 8:52 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Printers Installing 32-bit drivers on a 64-bit server should be easy, but sometimes it's not and frustrating. Here at our HQ office I installed the Print Server role on a 32-bit server, just so I could connect to the production 64-bit server and add 32-bit drivers. Also, be sure the drivers are certified, even if they are an older version. I've found 64-bit Windows 2008 will accept them more readily. Haven't tried Brian's method, will definitely do that next time my 64-bit server pukes a 32-bit driver...

Here is one issue... They have a new server running Win2008 64 bit. They have installed a bunch of printers using the drivers from the manufacturers but these are 64 bit drivers. They have shared the printers to the general user (all 32 bit users) and no one can print. Is it possible to have printers on a 64 bit server and share them to the 32 bit user? The guy before me said he could not get the 32 bit drivers to install on the server and so here I am. I just want to make sure it is possible before I spend hours trying to get it to work. Any help would be great! Thanks!
