Same problem

[Guest]

Hello,
I have EXACTLY the same problem, and understand how you fixed it. My problem is, I cannot get the Windows 7 64-bit driver for the IP5000 downloaded onto my 32-bit machine. Where did you get that download from? Or where do i find it on my 64-bit laptop?
Thanks,
Wizard247

I have found a way around all this on http://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/4602-xp-7-printer-sharing.html

Basically need to set up the printer on the Windows 7 machine as a LOCAL printer on a new local port.

It's brilliant and works!
