1. Assign static IP addresses on the printers, presuming there's a console
on the printer to do this.
2. In Windows server, add standard TCP/IP ports that refer to those IP
addresses (in the server properties in your printers applet)
3. Add local printers using those ports, and using the correct drivers
4. Share the printers
