Lexmark X73: Print Server Has Incorrect Driver

Forum Wireless Networking : General Discussion Lexmark X73: Print Server Has Incorrect Driver

Setup, Configuration & Security

Range & Connectivity

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

Tried accessing my printer (Lexmark X73 connected by USB to my desktop computer) from a wireless laptop. While the laptop is able to find the printer on the network, I keep getting message that print server has incorrect driver. I disabled bi-directional support and enabled printer sharing. Am using an SMC 7004VWBR router. Tried uninstalling printer and re-installing using a current Lexmark driver. However, I keep getting the same message. Any ideas?

When I did mine, I shared the printer on one pc, then on the other machine I
add a printer and it will say remote or local, so I do remote and then
browse to the networked printer. It will also want the printer drivers on
both machines and will ask you about that.
