How to connect Windows 7 64-bit to shared HP LaserJet 1000 printer installed on Windows XP?












0














I've got HP LaserJet 1000 printer installed on Windows XP. I successfully connected to the printer on Windows 7 x86. I tried the same with Windows 7 x64 but failed.



I did steps from HP forums and those were:




  • Updated drivers to the host based driver on HP LaserJet 1000

  • Changed port on HP LaserJet 1000 DOS from file to USB

  • On Windows 7 x64 added a printer -> local printer -> entered a port name -> chose LJ 1100 MS drivers


And this should work but it doesn't. I include screenshots from my work. Maybe I missed something.

I'd be grateful if somebody could tell me what I did wrong. Thanks in advance.



EDIT: I've just done it on my other machine with W7x64 and it worked. So there's something wrong with my system configuration but I don't know where to start.

          • Remembering back to my Citrix days.. What about using a generic driver like a HP LaserJet 4 or HP LaserJet 4? if you have to choose, try to go as low as possible with PCL, like PCL4, if possible.. PCL as high as 6 maybe OK, but if memory serves, you want as low as possible.
