Win Server 2008 R2 64 bit has a known Microsoft issue of being unable to push out 32 bit drivers to 32 bit clients. There is a work around which requires a special print driver. I am unable to explain the procedure as I only watched someone else do it once.

You will have to research this one.

This one is normally for when you have issues installing a 32Bit Driver on a 64Bit OS or vise versa. Normally you should be able to simply add the driver if the driver is written correctly and your system is up to date with patches / service packs.

As for the slow print performance via the 2008 32Bit server, try disabling the the auto update feature, disable advanced printing features and bi-directional support. Also, if you are printing via Standard TCP/IP Printing Port, then I would make sure that "Enable SNMP Status" is disabled.

you can pull the driver from the machine \\ etc in run command also in machine settings slow down the network speed to 100 base t

Why would you want to slow down to 100BT when the end user is complaining of slow data output?

Remember, until the green data light begins to flash on the LCD panel of the copier, the copier has not rec'd the data yet. So slow printing is a network configuration/ print driver issue and not a copier issue.

hi Guys,

I have an e-studio 4555C printer on a server for network print. I used the driver: TOSHIBA Universal Printer 2. It is very slow when we print. It takes 20 seconds to print an all-text, single-paged word document. It also shows a "not responding" printing dialog box before it finishes. I have already disabled SNMP on the printer properties.

Do you guys have any idea on how to make it faster? Is there a setting that we need to tweak?

Thanks in advance!

Port_Name.jpg Make sure you haven't changed the Port Name in your servers driver, I had changed this to a friendly name after installation and this caused the driver to search the entire network for resolution prior to sending the data to the copier (Toshiba e-studio 4450c). This caused extremely slow response times and even took several (15-30 seconds) to allow the workstation to clear the job. User frustration was HIGH!! As soon as I uninstalled the port and reinstalled it, this time without changing the "Port Name", everything started humming like a bird!

Hope this helps! I scratched my head a few hours over that one!
