How to share network printer with win7 64 bit and winXP 32 bit?

  

The company uses the old computer (192.168.1.2) to share the printer (HP LaserJet 3015 PCL5e) with it and use it as a print server. Now because many of the clients are upgraded to the win7 64-bit operating system, it is not possible to load the client printer driver through the printer properties->"""""""other drivers" in the print server-side printer. With 192.168.1.2hp3015, the printer driver could not be found and could not be printed with a shared printer. This article mainly installs the local printer driver (still the model of the server printer) on the client, and uses the local port in the local printer to connect to the server.

1. Find the printer driver.

Because it is a model of HP's relatively long-term printer (2004), search for the corresponding driver through HP China official website.

2. Download the printer driver.

I downloaded the local D drive, and you can select the corresponding download path according to the actual situation.

3. Install the printer driver.

HP downloads the self-extracting zip file program and double-clicks it to extract it. Specify the decompression path, click UNZIP to decompress, decompress it, it will automatically run the Install.exe program to drive the installation.

Select USB mode.

4. Set the printer port properties.

Open the win7 printer management window, right click on the installed printer, select “Printer Properties”-“Port”, Add “Local Port Port, address is 192.168.1.2hp3015 (please according to yourself Set the print server actual IP and shared printer name, where the print server IP is 192.168.1.2 and the shared printer name is hp3015)

Note:

1. Make sure the server printer works. Normal, the test page can be printed on the server.

2, the server printer is normal, follow the steps to complete the setup, you can print the test page test on the client printer, the test is successful.

3, server IP, should ensure that you can ping通
