    I have an older Konica 7030 printer in my office that is recognized under "add a printer" however when I highlight and search it cannot find printer.

    when I go to Minolta update drivers I get sent to Drivermanager.com and Driversupport.com

    both sites appear to want $ to use.

    Is there a way to get the driver from Minolta/Konica that anyone knows how to find?

    It doesn't appear that Konica Minolta has created any 7030 drivers for Windows 7 or Windows 8.

    I've searched almost everywhere and it is not to be found.
    thanks for your replies.

    Correct, because the manufacturer has not yet created a driver.

    You're welcome.

    Yet? Since I don't even see any Vista drivers (which often work with W7 and W8 systems), I would say Konica has no intention of dedicating any resources for new drivers. :(

    I did find this but I think I would sure scan the heck out of it before trying - just to be sure it is clean.
