Need help if anyone can give it. 12PC's with win95. Machintosh DHCP server. Printer on network. Everything works fine. Formatted hard drives and installed win98. Loaded drivers and installed TCP/IP protocals. everything works fine except the machines will not see the printer anymore. One machine was left with win95(this one can still see it) and I found out that removing the IPX protocal causes the computer to not communicate with it anymore. Installed the ipx protocal on all the win98 machines and made them match the win95 machine. They are not seeing it in network neighborhood still..Also installed JETadmin software and it was able to print a test page on a win98 machine. To lay it down I cant install the drivers because the machines cannot see the printer present on the network. Any ideas?

So I'm assuming you have a jet direct card installed. It is probably configured to use IPX/SPX. You can change it to use TCP/IP instead. Don't remember exactly the key combinations but first you take it offline and go through the setup/or config menu until you find the network config and when you get to tcp/ip you press the + to change from no to yes.
