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,

    This worked  with my Windows 7 64bit operating system. I bought a new ink jet printer 6 months ago as I was unable to get the pagepro to work. The ink jet is fine for small jobs, but the laser is much faster, Thanks for your help.

    The Windows Update failed to show the Konika-Minolta PagePro 1400w driver.

    It only shows PagePro9100 PPD.

    Without appropriate firmware for x64 Win7 the printer is a piece of plastic.

    The driver is for the 1350W.  Who cares if Windows update doesnt show it?  The link to the driver posted earlier works! Nuff said. :)

    I have tried and tried to get the Konica minolta Page Pro 1350w to work with my laptop which has windows 7.  Alas after many months of frustration, I have decided that it's not worth it.  There is no compatibility between that and windows 7.  Don't send me any more messages on this topic, too frustrated
