Ricoh driver on server 2008 32 bit

[Guest]

Customer has a Ricoh 5501 with the PCL5 print drivers installed and shared on server 2008 32 bit with the 64 bit driver also installed. One if the users has a XP box as well as an vista 32 bit box that he did a add network printer on adding the drivers from the server. The XP box is fine, but every morning, first print, on the vista PC, he gets a message saying that he has to readd the print driver. He readds then is fine for the rest of the day. Next morning same message to readd. Anyone ever run across this?

Sounds like it might be a corrupt .dll file in the Vista driver. The base driver for all of the NTFS family machines is the same, except for a .dll or two. Try removing the driver completely from the server (including the system32 folders) and re-adding it.
