Also a lot of times this works way better if you do the x86 driver upload from an x86 box. Go to \\printserver<file:///\\printserver> and click printers/faxes, then right click and Server Properties and you can push the drivers up remotely.

Cook Systems Administrator Partnership for Strong Families ________________________________ From: Kelli Sterley <[email protected]> To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]> Sent: Mon Dec 20 14:19:35 2010 Subject: Printers I have just started with a company and have been challenged to fix some issues they have been having. 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!
