Hello Mike,
Install the 32-bit drivers. ( this has to be done first if the machine
acting as the print server is 32-bit)
Then share the printer.
right-click on the printer and choose properties.
Then choose the sharing tab.
Then the additional drivers button, check the box for x64
Now supply the drivers when prompted.
Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
