| print from xp to a printer shared on vista I have a HP LJ1220 connected to a machine running Vista 64 bit edition. I am having trouble adding 32 bit drivers for XP to print to that printer. I have downloaded the latest drivers, PCL 5e, PCL 6 as well as PS form HP, but vista won't allow me to add them.      |

| Re: print from xp to a printer shared on vista It is my understanding that Vista 64bit will only allow digitally signed drivers to be installed, where as Vista 32bit will give you the option via UAC to install unsigned drivers, however I might be corrected.

| Re: print from xp to a printer shared on vista Nothing to correct. x64 requires signed drivers written for 64-bit. 32-bit drivers cannot be forced. That printer is listed as compatible, he may not be running the driver setup with elevated privileges, assuming they are the correct version. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP [url]http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/[/url] Windows help - [url]www.rickrogers.org[/url] "Stuart Forshaw" <stuart@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:OONxab5aHHA.4832@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl...[color=blue] > It is my understanding that Vista 64bit will only allow digitally signed > drivers to be installed, where as Vista 32bit will give you the option via > UAC to install unsigned drivers, however I might be corrected. > > Regards > > Stuart > > > > "BenzSL600" <BenzSL600@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:11159A14-C587-4895-8DFC-E655A1636E28@microsoft.com...[color=green] >>I have a HP LJ1220 connected to a machine running Vista 64 bit edition.
