Hello folks,
I have a friend that has an Epson 9600 Ultrachrome inks, and bought a new computer.
He cannot seem to find the Disk that came with the printer, nor can either of us find a driver for download.

Can anyone lead us in the right direction?

Thanks,
Fred

Thanks for trying Brian.
That link just leads to that IT utility that helps set the printer up in a network environment.
I even took it and tried to install it. Just to see what was inside.
No driver in there.

On the other hand, the 9600 seems to be dropped officially from the Epson list of supported printers.
So what I did was to download and install the Vista 64 bit driver, and it was happy with my W 7 64.
I do not have the printer so I cannot test it, but it looks like it will be fine.
I emailed the driver to the friend that has the 9600 and he will get back to me.

I also learned that there's a 9700 that replaced the 9600... I downloaded that driver too in case there was a problem with the Vista 64 driver.
Thanks a lot for giving it a try for me.. appreciate the effort.

Brian, et al...
I know I always like to hear the follow-up on a problem, and solution, so here's the scoop on the Epson 9600 driver.
Yes, the Vista 64 bit driver worked perfectly... a little stubborn on auto finding a port, but we manually assigned one.
Works perfectly..

Thanks for your advice and help.
