Sorry for the late reply, I been tryin to work this printserver with my new laserjet 1020 printer though with no luck...
I am totally surprise here, because I had manage to get it to work on 2 occasion but then it just plain dead (doesn't print) to me again!!!
Ok let me try to explain... The printer (hp lj 1020) is located on the other side of the room so I brought the printer and hook up next to my PC to make my life abit easier to configure it (the printer still in the same network, just switching place)
Somehow along the line I had manage to get it prints (just doing the same procedure, uninstalled and reinstalled the driver, changing IP, switching the Queue Name etc etc) I was very happy then so I brought it back to it original place hook up and try to print test again, guess what? it doesn't print (file being spool in the Queue Name then just disappear, the same issue I had mention before)
It was the cable I thought, so I brought the printer back to my place area for testing (hook up with the same cable, obviously I did not change anything in my PC) but then again it doesn't work... HOW ???????
I am going nutts now, I am simply don't have a clue what the problem I am dealing with. Is it the setup/cable/network? printer/printserver? what is it?
At last I'd borrow my brother laptop to work on it alone with another free HUB (thought it might be the current networking causing the problem), I got it to print once again and the same things happen as before after I moved the printer and printserver to it original place so I hook everything back with the laptop, I expect it to work - but it did just like before...
Now, I did not just try afew but close to hundred times (reinstalled driver, queue name, plug/unplug, power on/off, reset everything I could think of) but no work.
Although, if I took the printer (laserjet 1020) and hook it up to any computers on the network it can printing/sharing fine. The same as my old printer (deskjet 845c) if I hook it up to the printserver it printing/sharing fine too.
I don't know if I get the message clear and understandable, because I do really need help from you all...
Thank
