Version 1.1.9.1289 This application includes the latest version 5.x ZDesigner certified driver and is recommended for driver installation and printer configuration. Here is a list of all the drivers that I could find on the WHS restore CD. Anything marked in RED is a storage driver, BLUE shows network drivers. If there are any updates, or suggestions to this list please let me know. Every device is controlled by a driver. Drivers form the interface between external devices such as printers and keyboards, and work in conjunction with the operating system, when a new device requires a new driver to be loaded on to the computer. This is a quick how-to for adding additional print drivers to your print server. This is a very easy method, especially if you have existing computers that are of a different platform than your server and have been able to print. This method does require administrative rights so be prepared to enter your credentials.

For this example I will be adding the x86 drivers to a x64 server. This particular setup is from Windows 7 32-bit to Windows 2008R2 64-bit.

Why wouldn't you just go direct to the server that was acting as your print server? So much easier that way.

All those steps to install print services, but you don't actually show how to install additional print drivers. What a waste of time.

It was a decent article but I agree with Chris.hone. I am not sure why you wouldn't just open print management. Aside from that either before step 8 or as a note. IF additional drivers is greyed out when you open right-click on the printer and select 'Manage Sharing' You will need to stop sharing the printer close the properties window and reopen it and you should be able then to add additional drivers to the printer selected.
