I switched it over to TCP/IP with an address of 192.168.1.21 on the NT4 print server and at the printer(HP JetDirect). When tried to ping address from 2003 server - failed. Can ping this address from NT4 workstation, Server, XP Pro workstation, and from Windows 2003 AD domain server. The 2003 server in question can ping all other addresses and names except for one in question 192.168.1.21. Changed HP Printer to use DHCP - found new address of 192.168.1.80 - still could not ping new address or DNS name of printer from 2003 server in question, but can ping and use printer from all other servers and workstations.

Need more input. :)

Is the server in the same logical network? Same cabling? No firewall
or router between?

Do an IPCONFIG /ALL on the server and post the results. Post the IP,
Netmask and DG from the printer.
