If shared printer access continues to fail: 1. **Direct USB Connection:** Connect the printer directly to the Windows 7 machine via USB, if feasible. 2. **IP Address Printing:** If the printer is directly network-enabled, try adding it to Windows 7 by its IP address rather than browsing for shared printers. 3. **Print to PDF / Email:** Print to a PDF and then transfer the file to a machine that can print, or use an 'email to print' service if supported by your printer. 4. **Dedicated Print Server:** Consider using a dedicated print server appliance that might have broader compatibility with older OS.
