Hi, I am looking into performance problems on a relativley large factory site that uses 3300 switches. The original plan indicates that all 3300 stacks are linked back to a core 4950 by either fibre or, in the case of the server room stacks, copper. I have found that one area of the site...

The client on the Windows 98 PC's is 3.31 with the client32.nlm patch. The 5.0 server is on service pack 6a.

Riverguy - I have tried installing the full printing system and the add printer version of the driver, uninstalling inbetween. Both do the same. ShaneOhMac - Port seems to be set up correctly, just points to the network Q. Built in JetDirect and, as I mentioned, works fine from Windows 98 on...
