x64 driver file for Brother HL-1430 printer

I have a Windows 7 HP (32 bit) desktop with a Brother HL-1430 printer
connected by USB.

I previously had a Vista HP (32 bit) laptop wirelessly networked and had no
problem accessing the printer via my Home network.

Recently I upgraded to a new laptop Windows 7 HP (x64).

When I try to install the printer on the new laptop the hl-1430 is
discovered OK, but I get an error 0x00000002 - Cannot connect.

When I go to the printer sharing tab on the desktop I am asked for a .inf
file to share on the x64 machine.

I assume this is a driver file, but where can I find this file? - Brother
site search yield nothing.
