You will need to get the 64 bit drivers and add them to the existing print 
server. No you don't need additional printers on the server.....

Subject: Windows 7 64bit not connecting to network printers


So I've added my first Windows 7 64 bit machine to the domain, but I can't add 
any of the network printers to it.

Win7 says "no driver was found".

If I goto the printer server (win2003 server), right click on any of the 
network printers>sharing>additional drivers... I only have "x86, Win2000 Winxp 
Win2003) checked.

I can't check x64 because it then asks for a driver location...

Do I need to install the 64 bit drivers for every printer that this new 
workstation needs to connect to?

I assume I'd have to create a separate printer on the server (with 64bit 
driver) just for Win7 workstations?

Not sure where to start.

TIA
