I was trying to add a network printer in Printers and Faxes but the server could not find the printer which is connected to the network by an ethernet hub. When I upgraded to R2 and used Manage Printers the server found and installed it automatically.
I would like to know how to install a network printer on a server that does not have the upgrade. Can it only be done throught Printers and Faxes?

If you want to install a regular networked printer, it has to be able to be assigned an IP. Whether its via a 3rd party printer server or with a built in NIC. I have several networked printers installed on Server 2003 w/SP1 with no problems. What other type of problems did you run into while trying to install them?
