Thanks Lem for your reply. The print server is within that range.
Should it be outside that range? I'm using WPA2 encryption.

I'm not doing anything when it happened. I woke up yesterday morning
and opened the laptop and thats when I saw the error. I went in my
office where the router is and saw the same thing on one of the
desktops. Neither of them were in use when the error occured. So what I
did was unplug the adapter from the router for 30 secs to get another IP
addy for the desktop. I was pressed for time so I didn't bother with the
laptop but when I got home last night I had to do the same thing I did
in the morning.

The print server's static IP should be *outside* the range of addresses
assigned by the DHCP server (the router). This is why you are getting the
error. So if your router assigns IP addresses 192.168.1.10-50 for ex.,
make the printer 192.168.1.200.

Ok i'll try that when I get home tonight. Thanks Malke. Another quick
question for future reference.
How can find out which systems are having the conflict?

Wy

The duplicate ip address exists on the network. Hence, all of them should
report an error.
