Where can I get a generic postscript driver for W7?

[Al Dykes]

I need a generic postscript printer driver for W7. I've always used
the basic Apple printer under older versions of Windows and never
needed to have a driver disk. My W7 doesn't list any Apple printers
under Add A Printer.

What driver do I download ?

Thanks.

Have you tried Adobe? After all, PostScipt is theirs.

Go to Printers and Devices, click on "Add a printer" at the top of the page.
Select "Local printer" then "Use an existing port" then click Next. When the
"Install the printer driver" window comes up, click on "Windows Update" near
the bottom. It may take two or three minutes to finish, depending on your
connection. Scroll down to "Generic" in the left pane, then pick one of the
"PS" drivers from the right pane (such as '35PPM PS). If the first one you
pick doesn't work properly, try another one, going through the same process.

If the printer already shows in Printers and Devices, then highlight it and
pick "Print server properties" at the top of the page. Go to the Drivers
tab, then click Add.. at the bottom of the page. Then click Next, Next, then
"Windows Update" and follow the same procedure as before.
You can also remove any driver(s) that didn't work from the Drivers tab
using this method.

I'm not presented with any printers by those names. In the Generic
Printer category, my only choices are:

Color Laser Printer 55 PS3
Color Laser Printer 56 PS3
Color Laser Printer 57 PS3
Color Laser Prt 39 Black Only
Color Laser Prt 40 Black Only

Did you click on Windows Update? Look in the Generic section, not the
Generic Printers section.

Yes, I was looking in Generic Printers. Now I see them... 35PPM PS -
that one might work for him.
