    Adding a printer with print server

    I want to add another printer to a workstation that is attached to a print server. I selected Add Printer and set up the printer but nothing will print. When there is a print server do I have to set up the printer on the server? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Normally that should work fine.
    I have a workstation with a printer connected to it and i can also use a networkprinter.
    Are others able to install your printer to their machine as a networkprinter ?

    What are you using as a Print Server?
    Is it a computer or a Jet Direct box (or similar device). If you are using a computer the printer should be set up on that computer AND shared. If it is a Jet Direct (or similar) those device drivers should be setup on your computer, as well as the printer drivers.

    Let me know what you are using.

    I have not been able to find the info on a Netgear print server. The closest I could find is a Linksys, the setup may be similar.
