Hello everybody,
I can't find Windows Vista driver for my printer (Konika Minolta Magicolor 2300W).

Thanks for your help.

Can use XP driver for my printer ?
It might or might not work - if you can find any Vista drivers, that's better but generally, XP drivers work (usually) OK but it really does depend on pretty much random factors. Give it a go - the worst comes to the worst, it'll just say the installation has failed.

Thanks for your feedback...
I've installed XP driver, but... 2 problems appear : - After install, port was configure to FILE... :( - If I change port to USB001, when I print a document, all works leave in print manager and doesn't send to printer.
