IP Printer goes offline in Terminal Server session

[Guest niles]

I have a printer setup with a Linksys print server. If I add this

printer as a local printer to my computer, I can print all day with no

problems. If I add this printer onto our terminal server so that our

offsite users can print to it, it will work for one or two pages, then

go into offline mode. If I delete the printer and re-add it, it will

work again for one or two pages, then it will go offline. I can

continuously ping the print server even when it is showing that it is

offline. Any ideas?

I do not know if this will work for you, but I had a Lexmark W820 do the

same thing. It was fine in XP, Linux and UNIX, but W2K3 TS server kept

going offline.

 

I upgraded the firmware in the print server and now all is well.

 

Is there a newer firmware for your print server?

It looks like the firmware is already at the latest version. Any

other ideas??

 

Thank you.
