Conversion to 64 bit...

Hi,

Is there should be any limitation using a 32 bit compiled printer
driver, on a windows xp 64 bit?

Also, is there should be any limitation limitation (or that a code
change is required) using 32 bit user mode application that runs on
xp 64 bit, and communicates with a 64 bit compiled driver ? (Besides
exchanging pointers from kernel to user mode and back)

Thanks!

The limitation is that 32-bit [printer] drivers do not work on 64-bit
windows.
