Its a small office 5 computers and a server. Server is running nt4.0 computers 4 have win98 1 win ME. The system was setup in 94. A few new computers sence then nothing special. Here is the problem. The protocol Netbeui and ipx/spx for the printer. There is my problem.
2 of the computers see the printer the others wont. When I click on network Places on the desk top and open the network I see workgroups and hp networks, the three that dont print dont have the hp network. All the computers see each other. When I try to install the printer on the other computers they cant find hp network. So I cant install the printer as a network printer.
The printer is hooked to a print server box ( I think thats what you call it) and a cat5 cable to the SERVER.
WHAT DO I DO TO GET THE PRINTER WORKING WITH THIS SETUP. I know TCP/IP is much better, but I dont want to make any major changes.
I want to do a fresh install of win 98 on one of the computers that see the printer, but I wont until I know how to get the printer working again.
PLEASE any help THANKS
