Konica Minolta PagePro 1350W compatibilty with Windows 7, comes up as "Unspecified" device

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,

    The drivers are so new, the Microsoft website still lists the 1350W as not supported.  That is still my favorite printer, for cost, speed, and because Staples stopped carrying them, I bought toner for two years.

    NEW INFORMATION, THE DRIVERS ARE NOW ON THE KONICA MINOLTA WEBSITE FOR BOTH 32 AND 64.

    I am now using my PagePro 1350W.  These drivers just came out.

    @ Manni and George:

    This absolutely works. I linked to the European site and downloaded the drivers. Opened the zip file, clicked on setup.exe., elected the USB port option and clicked OK.

    I have the Konica Minolta PP 1350W printer and am connected to a MS Windows 7 Premium Home edition operating system.

    Thanks
