Hi

i am having difficulties installing the 32bit drivers for a Lanier MP C4500/LD445c. The printer is installed on Windows Server R2 Standard and when i go to add the additional driver it get the error "the specified location does not contain the driver lanier MP C4500/LD445 PCL5c for the requested processor architecture."
Has anyone seen this before who can tell what i'm doing wrong.

I was trying to install the printer on a windows server 2008 R2 which is 64 bit. When you do this windows automatically installs the PCL 5 drivers. i had someone suggest selecting to manually install the PCL 6 drivers and though i got the same error when trying to install the 32bit drivers it seems that 32bit Windows XP computers can now connect. Not really sure what to make of that but at least it works now.
