You can't. Drivers operate in Kernel Mode, and 64 bit client systems can only handle 64-bit code at the kernel level.
What you need to do is to install the 64 bit drivers as an additional driver on your print server, so that when those 64-bit machines connect to the 32-bit print server, they can automatically be provided with the correct 64-bit driver.
This is done on the printer properties on the print server, under the drivers section. Click the button labeled "additional Drivers" and follow the prompts from there.
HTH,
