Minolta PagePro 1250W on Vista 64-bit "Bumbrlik" <bumbrlik007[ at ]gmail.com> 12/29/2008 2:52:36 AM I am trying to install an XP driver for my Minolta PagePro 1250W printer on Vista 64-bit Home Premium. Minolta web site claims that it should be possible, that I should be able to install the XP driver and it should work: http://onlinehelp.kmprinters.com/CPDocs/q0107023.htm#mc2300%20DL,%20mc2300W,%20mc2430%20DL,%20PP1300/W1350W: However, the driver just refuses to be installed. One possible reason that I can think of is that Minolta support guys managed to install the XP driver on Vista 32-bit and I have 64-bit edition. Does that sound like a plausible explanation ? Am I screwed ? Thanks.
