You don't know if you have the following experience: the printer is installed on a computer of XP system, and the printer is shared out. Other LAN users with XP system can find the printer directly from the share, and install the driver through the network (in fact, it is the driver on the XP system computer where the printer is installed by COPY), and you can use the shared printer. If there is a computer in the local area network that installs win7 or higher windows system, when you open the printer directly from the share, because the printer driver on the host is XP platform, most of the time it is not compatible with WIN7 (especially 64-bit) or compatible, and the driver cannot be installed. This usually occurs when a 64-bit win7 or win8 system is connected to a printer shared by a computer on a 32-bit system. As shown below:

The reason for this is obvious. Because the driver under the printer XP is not supported under your WIN7, you want to download a printer driver that supports win7 64-bit on the Internet and install it manually locally.

Download the official website to the win7 platform 64-bit system driver (.exe format file). As a result, there was a problem when double-clicking to run the installation. no, no, no.

The installer requires a cable to connect the printer. I'm really drunk. I can connect by cable. What's the point of sharing in my local area network?

So I thought of finding the way to install it. But... no, no, no.

Click to browse-- find-- cannot find the downloaded driver.

Take a look. In this way, windows defaults to looking for .inf files. The exe file is downloaded. Of course not.

You can do this at this point: the driver you downloaded is an exe file and there is no INF. At this point, you just need to change the suffix exe to rar. And decompress it. You will find that .inf files have been extracted. Re-manual search-browse, select the INF file, and the installation is successful.
