Windows Cannot Locate A Suitable Printer Driver
Windows Cannot Locate A Suitable Printer Driver Windows 7 64-bit
How is the printer connected to the network. If by usb to another computer running a different os than your computer you need to load the printer on you computer as a local printer first and then change the port to reflect the shared port name of the computer to which the printer is connected. To locate one manually click OK.' I then click OK. I then manually select the driver from a source that I know has worked before on other 64 bit computers and it says 'Windows cannot locate a suitable driver.' Method #2) Add printer > add a local printer > Create a new port (type is local)> Enter port name: serverName sharedPrinterName.
If the 'MS Publisher Color Printer' is used for Vista Machines, why does Doc2Any use this driver on Windows 7? Shouldn't Doc2Any be using the 'HP Color LaserJet 2800 Series PS' driver instead? This seems like an issue within your software.
Windows 7 Printer Driver Downloads
I have a Vista Ultimate x64 machine with my old printer (canon i550) connected. I want to share that printer with another machine on my home network that is running XP x86. I go through all the wizards and I can share files. But when I try to add the printer in XP I keep getting the message: 'The server for 'Canon inkjet i550 printer does not have the correct printer driver installed. Then I click on OK to search for the driver and I get 'Windows cannot locate a suitable driver.
I have installed the Vista 64 drivers and the XP x86 drivers on the respective machines. I've downloaded the newest drivers from Canon and when I try to add additional drivers to Vista(the x86 driver), I'll direct to it and it gives me the error 'The specified location does not contain the driver for the requested processor architecture.' But it is the right xp x86 driver! I even installed the driver from the Canon disk it came with on the XP machine, hooked it up directly to the xp box and could print just fine. So the correct drivers are installed, but windows tells me otherwise when trying to connect over the network.
Thanks for any help.
