I have the drivers and installed an Epson LQ570e printer in Win7 X64 but when I create a new form size in Server Properties and Save the form, the form is NOT shown in the forms listing for the printing defaults for the installed printer. I can see the form named after I save it under the server settings, but it doesn't appear in the printer setup area for the same printer. I have tried it with a regular user account and an administrator account without any difference. I had a regular user try the same activity on a different workstation and it worked perfectly; what fine detail am I overlooking?
Thanks,
Mark
 
Attempted to use Windows XP mode via virtual machine, same results as Windows 7 method. It will save the form via server properties but does not add that saved form to the printer selection forms list for advanced or printing defaults.
 
I tried using a different PC running WinXP and the same driver and same results. I finally figured out a way around this issue; I use the Epson LQ570+ driver and server settings using the form size (the machine saved ALL my previous form sizes) and set the printer defaults and preferences to that same form size and it worked.
