Hello...

I've Xerox WorkCentre PE220 connected to Vista x86 Ultimate PC. I wont
to print from another PC on network, running Vista x64 Ultimate. I get
"no drivers error"...
Tried to solve it by adding this printer as Local Port (\\otherpc
\printername) - not worked - no rights
Created additional account on x64 machine, with name and password as
on x86, and tried to add Local Printer - it worked fine... so I've
switched back to original acc. on x64 machine, saw the "printer
connected" status, deleted this "same as" account... all print jobs
since then got "error" status.

Basically, all this can be solved adding "additional driver" for x64
to x86 machine printer driver (network sharing) - but I don't know
where to get this driver. May be there is a way to convert regular x64
driver to "additional"? I don't know. I'm looking for solution to be
able to print to that network printer and not to have additional
account on x64 machine for that.

You should download the 64 bit printer driver from the manufactory.

Hi
The Driver of the Network available printer has to be installed on each
computer that is going to use this printer.
The drives has to be compatible wit the version of the OS that is installed
on each individual computer.
Some Network Printers has also a special control utility that has to be
installed on each computer too.

Hi...
I've 64bit driver I've downloaded form Xerox site. While trying to
install it via "add network printer" on x64 machine and pointing to
".inf" file of downloaded driver, I have error an error "Windows
cannot locate a suitable printer driver..."
While trying to use same driver as "additional driver" for x64
processor on x86 machine - I have same error.

PS
downloaded GDI driver from here:
