Hi,

I was able to install a HP LaserJet p3005 and Canon iPF710 printers on a
window 2003 server. However, my XP users got the message below when they
tried to map to these printers:

The server for the "Canon ..." printer does not have the correct printer
driver installed. If you want to search for the proper driver, click OK.

Please advise

I took this from the Canon site:

This printer cannot be used with Windows Vista/Server 2003/XP 64-bit
edition.

You may have to connect it to an XP workstation and share it from there.

During the initial installation of the printer on the server, you
should have been asked if you wanted any other operating systems to use
the printer and, if so, then prompted to provide the drivers for those
other operating systems.

Alternatively, you can install the necessary drivers onto each
workstation manually, either from the driver CD or from a network location.
