brother MFC-9600 vista 64 print drivers not working

I am having issues with the built in brother MFC-9600 multifunction printer
drivers. The printer only prints out a blank page. I contacted Brother
support and determined that it is not a hardware issue as we were able to
emulate the brother printer driver using the built in HP Laserjet IIP driver.

Using the HP driver, the document prints (but not at a decent resolution
that the brother is capable of). Brother suggested I contact Microsoft phone
support as the problem is with the drivers however Microsoft were not able to
help unless I pay.

Brother stated that they do not write the drivers, but that they are done by
Microsoft and are built in to Vista (and XP for that matter). There are no
available driver downloads for this model from brother. When I was running
XP, the printer worked fine. Now with Vista 64, it fails to print correctly.
Photocopying and faxing work fine, just not printing.


System Details:
Intel Quad Core 2.40 GHz CPU
ASUS P5NE Motherboard
4.0 GB Ram
Windows Vista 64 Ultimate

Any recommendations?
