for windows 7 x64 for this print server? I realize there are many workarounds listed but why do I even have to do that? Why can't I buy a product and have it work without having to fight with it?

It worked immediately for my one xp system. All my other systems are 7 x64 which means it is essentially useless for them. I've tried the workarounds listed and none of them work. The print job never makes it to the printer. I've tried every configuration on the port for lpr and raw, none work.

Anyone from dlink listening?

Five days and over 100 views. Yup, nobody at dlink is listening.

What have you tried exactly?

I have several different computers with various versions of Windows 7 64 bit and have seen no problems.  I have a DPR-1260 connected to an HP LaserJet 1200 and a Cannon MP530.  They are configured for a Standard TCP/IP Port in RAW mode.  I obtained the drivers for both printers from Windows Update during the new printer wizard.

Just bought the DPR1260. I have different PCs with XP, Vista, and Win 7 ultimate 64 bit.
The printer is an Epson MFP, Stylus Photo RX600.

The first lesson I learned is that I need to install ALL drivers for the MFP printer, including
print and scan drivers, even if I don't use that function. After that, DPR1260 worked with
Vista and XP without any problem.

Win 7 is a different story. It just would not print. After 30 minutes on the phone with the D-LINK
tech support, they gave me a round-about solution. After some more comparing on my part,
my conclusion is that the DPR1260 need to be configured to have static IP address.
The dynamic IP address setting is OK with Vista but does not work with Win 7. I changed to static
IP address on DPR1260 and re-installed the print set up on Win 7 and it finally worked.

A couple more tidbits:
1. Both Vista and Win 7 reported that "program may not be installed correctly" after the
print setup (an .exe) file was executed during the last step of setup. I just ignored it and it still works fine.
2. My anti-virus program keep thinking the said .exe file is suspicious and keeps removing it
before it can be executed. I had to temporarily disable the anti-virus program to execute this file. Subsequent virus scans did not show any virus at all. Wierd, isn't it?

Many companies have been shy to support 64bit.   However they should get used to it as Windows 7 is coming out on more computers with 4 gig of memory you need 64bit version of the operating system to access more memory.
