I have a Konica Minolta PagePro 1350W laser printer that works quite well, I just updgraded to Windows7 from XP but my printer doesn't work anymore. It appears as PP1350W in the "Devices and Printers" window as an unspecified device. I tried installing the Vista Drivers for the Page Pro 1400W and now that printer appears in under "printers and Faxes", however the PP1350W is still listed as an unspecified device and printing to the 1400W does nothing. What's worse is not I can't even remove the 1400W no matter how many times I tell it to remove, it just automatically pops up again. Is there a generic driver out there for the PagePro 1350W that will work in Windows7 so I can at least have basic printing functionality?

Hello gUnit101,

From what i see in the Compatibility Center there are several versions of the PagePro printer that are compatible but the 1350 is not listed.  The 1100 and 1400 are listed but not the 1350.  I would check with Konica to see if they have updated drivers for your specific model or see if the drivers for one of the other models can work with your printer.

Regards,

    see

    http://www.konicaminolta.eu/business-solutions/support/download-center.html

    the US site of konicaminolta doesn't have updated drivers for all printers (e.g. for PagePro 1300W there's Vista/Windows7 driver, but US site only has up to XP)

    Hi,

    I also had the same problem with PagePro 1350E & WIN7 x64. I installed the driver for Windows Vista (64 bit) and now everything is OK. I found this driver here: http://download6.konicaminolta.eu/konmin/servlet/KonMinMaster;jsessionid=C6EA0994CDBE5BB47AE5082CE15247DE.node03\_02?path=../search.jsp&mode=show&document=267473

    Let me know if that works for you.

    My parents just udated their computer. They live in SouthAmerica.  The newone comes with Win7, but their old printer is a Minolta PagePro 1350W. A technician guy said them: You should install XP. So, my father calledme, and I seached in KONICA MINOLTA and e-mailed him with this link:   http://onyxftp.mykonicaminolta.com/download/SearchResults.aspx?productname=pagepro%201350  

    Now my parents are very happy. They can remain using their old printer.

    I hope you can do it also.

    farewell,
