Windows 7 64 Bit compatible printers?

[Nocandu]

Hi

I have a fairly new Epson C88+ printer and a Epson Perfection 1650 Scanner.

I have just purchased a new computer running Windows 7 64 Bit.

It doesn't appear that there are any drivers for either of these. What's so hard about supporting your products by keeping your drivers up to date?

I switched from Hewlett Packard to Epson because they wouldn't supply drivers for an expensive professional large format scanner I had when I switched to Windows XP.

The person that I gave it to is still using it and running Windows 98.

Can anyone suggest a printer and scanner that will work in Windows 7 64?

I have been over Epson's web site and it doesn't look like most of their stuff does.

Thanks for the help...

Mike

In the for what it is worth dept. I found a program online that will run pretty much any scanner in Windows 7 64 Bit.

I downloaded the free trial and it seems to work fine.
It recognized my scanner and ran it with all the options necessary.

Early adopters often suffer this kind of pain. Give them six months to come up with a driver.

You could always try the Vista 64bit drivers...

EPSON Perfection 1650 Vista x64 Driver is now available!, I have created x64 driver for Perfection 1650

In case anyone reads this wondering about it, I can say the HP OfficeJet 6100 works perfectly with Vista and 7.
