I recently purchased an IBM Infoprint 1512. I found 64 bit drivers for it online but for the life of me I can't connect it either to my network through my rosewill N gigabit router OR just direct connect USB to my computer.

I keep trying the add a printer feature of vista 64 bit and it will tell me it can't find any printer, it asks me to enter the IP address manually which I do (found it out by printing directly from the printer in it's menu).

It says it still can't communicate with it so it wants the driver installed, I go directly to the sub folder containing the 64 bit drivers and it immediately tells me that windows can not find the driver and it never works.

Can anyone help? Having it networked would be great, but even getting it to work via USB would be fine...I think there is some problem with the drivers...

Installation of this printer is very simple. Download this driver package, run the executable, then follow the prompts to let the driver automatically find and install the printer. If the driver package cannot locate the printer on a USB or LAN connection, then you either have a communication problem, which could be the computer's printing system or bad cables, or the printer is misconfigured (try resetting it to factory defaults) or defective.
