I have installed the final RTM version of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit on a test system before we begin the rollout in our company.

Windows Server 2003 X64 Iso

I'm having problems connecting to several HP printers that we have on the network. These printers are being shared from a Windows 2003 server host.

Re: Printer on windows server 2003, 64 bit windows 7 laptop connecting to it. Hi Samuel, First you need to find the same version drivers (and x64) than the ones installed on your server. Print driver installation on 32-bit versus 64-bit servers. 32 Bit printer drivers on a 64 Bit server. Also grayed out in Windows Server 2003 RTM.

I have downloaded the lastest HP Universal Printer driver, however I'm unable to add the 64-bit driver onto the 2003 server system (it's 32 bit).

Please consider upgrading to a more recent version of Internet Explorer, or trying another browser such as Firefox, Safari, or Google Chrome.

How can I get connected to these printers from the Windows 7 system?

  1. Go to a 64-bit machine on the network and copy the 64-bit driver files to the machine
  2. From the 64-bit machine, open Windows Explorer and browse to the 32-bit server
  3. Open the Printers dialog seen via Windows Explorer.
  4. From the Menu bar, select File >Server Properties, select the Drivers tab and click the Add button.
  5. In the Add Driver Wizard, tick the x64 Processor checkbox, and untick the x86 checkbox.
  6. Click Next, then click Have Disk and browse to the 64-bit driver on the local 64-bit machine.
  7. Complete the Add Driver Wizard.

Upon completion the Server Properties dialog should show the x64 drivers installed for that device type

I used the RSAT tools to get Windows 2003 to serve up drivers to Windows 7 x64. But, first, I had to update the driver list. Procedure I used:

-Update Windows Driver Database

  1. Go to Control Panel -> Devices and Printers.
  2. Add a new printer, choose local.
  3. Choose LPT1.
  4. In the 'Install printer driver' dialogue, click the Windows Update button. This will download the rest of the drivers you expect to see listed.
  5. Cancel the printer installation, the drivers will not be deleted.

-Install drivers to the server with RSAT

  1. Download and install the RSAT tools.
  2. Open the Print Management tool.
  3. Right-click on Print Servers, choose Add/Remove Server, and add your target print server.
  4. Under the new server object, click Add Drivers.
  5. In my case, since I'm on Windows x64, I selected x64, and deselected x86.
  6. This will bring up the list of drivers installed on your workstation. Choose the driver to install on the server.

Epson Windows 7 64-bit Printer Driver

Dom's answer got me pretty close.

I needed to modify it as follows.

My printer manufacture had re-designated the name of the printer within the driver. You can only add addition drivers with the same name to one you already have setup.

I had to download both of the new drivers (x86 and x64) and change my orginal printer over to the new x86 driver, then the system automatically added the x64 to it's list. Then I was able to install the printer on my Win 7 machine with no problems.

Thanks for this help!!

I know this is an old question but I just figured out how to do it so I thought I'd post my method for connecting to and printing from Windows 7 64-bit to a 32-bit Windows print server (should be the same for 64-bit Vista):

  • ensure you have the proper printer driver installed on your Windows 7 box
  • goto printers and devices, add new printer
  • select local printer
  • use existing port (LPT1)
  • select proper print driver
  • click next throughout rest of process
  • name the printer how you'd like it to be displayed.
  • let it install..
  • select 'do not share'
  • when finished, right click and select 'Printer Properties'
  • goto ports tab, click 'Add port..'
  • select 'Local Port' and then click 'New Port..'
  • type in the exact network address for the printer. ie: printserver01hplaserj
  • click OK, then click close
  • ensure the new port is selected and click Apply, then close
  • test printer. If it doesn't work than you may have an incorrect or incompatible print driver installed

Also, if you're trying to connect to HP printers I have found the HP Universal PCL6 driver to work remarkably well: download here

The easiest way is to download the x64 drivers for that device then rdp to print server and select printers the properties on the printer you want to install then sharing tab and click on additional drivers.Tick the checkbox for x64 Windows XP and widows server 2003then point to the inf file from the folder of the drivers you just downloaded.The when a user clicks on that printer it will ask if they want to install a driver.

Download XP64 bit driver. Go to the server and add 'additional drivers' under Sharing. Click on the x64 and point it to the XP64 bit driver. That should install X64 driver and you should be able to add the printer on any MS 64 bit OS. This works for our Win7 64 Bit OS users (HP P3005X printer).

P.S. I did unzip the driver on the 64 bit PC but that might not matter. It might work as well on the 32 bit hosting printer server.

I have run into this issue before. It comes down to the printer name inside the .inf. The x32 and x64 printer names have to be 'EXACTLY' the same. So, 'HP LaserJet P2015 Series PS' is different from 'HP LaserJetP2015 Series PS'. This drove me nuts for a little while until I learned that and went into the x64 .inf and copied and pasted the x32 .inf's printer name into it. After they are exactly the same then it should work.
