Problem printing after server 2003 upgrade.

by vasankorp . Updated 20 years, 9 months ago

Hi…

The school I work for recetnly updated our network to server 2003. There have been several other changes including an ISA server being added. We have been having a problem with the printers being shared on atleast 2 of the servers. Two of the printers we have noticed problems with are:

Epson Acculaser C1900
OKI C9300

The printers are networked with manually assigned IP addresses and have so far been shared through our domain controllers. They work fine for a short period of useage and then just stop responding. In the printer queue, the job that causes the failure just shows printer/error in the status. There are no entries in the event viewer logs. We can ping the printer, although it cannot be managed through the http interface or through a telnet session. This is only remedied by restarting the printer. I have tried restarting the spooler service on the servers. No joy. I have also deleted the logical printers, and created new ones.

I don?t really know how to proceed. Does anyone have any suggestions???

Thx

Gavin
