    Cannot print to a "Shared" Printer on Win 7 Ultimate 64


    I have searched and can't seem to find the solution!!

    Cannot print to a "Shared" Printer on Win 7 Ultimate 64 from a Vist 32bit machine.

    I can see the printer, but then it says that the drive is incorrect.

    It says that the *.inf file is not correct.

    I cannot figure this out!

    I also cannot install additional drivers on the Win 7 machine, because I get a, "the specified location does not contain the driver for the requested processor architecture" message.

    What am I doing wrong here??!!

    Hi Jsunn,

    Hope you've already found a solution but in case not - here's a helpful thread you may wanna read: Printer Sharing Windows 7 RC 64 to Vista 32
