The base driver for Windows 2000 and higher is the Microsoft
PostScript driver, which is available on any system running
Windows 2000 or higher in the
-%WINDOWS%\\SYSTEM32\\SPOOL\\DRIVERS\\W32X86\\3 folder.
+%WINDIR%\\SYSTEM32\\SPOOL\\DRIVERS\\W32X86\\3 folder for 32-bit
+drivers and
+%WINDIR%\\SYSTEM32\\SPOOL\\DRIVERS\\X64\\3 folder for 64-bit
+drivers.
.LP
The CUPS printer driver is preferred over the Microsoft driver
since it supports the page-label, job-billing, and
Windows 95, 98, and Me clients. The Adobe and Microsoft drivers
for Windows 2000 are identical.
