I giggle as I type that name! :-)

OK, we ARE talking about Win9x here. I had a problem on setting up printers on Win9x clients manually! Until I discovered my share names for the printers were over 8 characters long! And the printer names were too!

So I renamed them all (9 in total) so that the printer names and share names were all 8 characters long and NO more. This allowed the Win9x clients to connect to the printers and update the drivers from the server etc.

Try this out with 1 printer and try not to include any - or _ in the name if poss!

I may be barking up the wrong tree here but this COULD be the problem.

Oh (just in case) did you read this thread?

They mention a con2prt utility.

Good luck.
