I'm setting up one of the servers here at the College which through Workgroup manager will be pushing out to all the labs the control of the printers.

I installed all the drivers that I need all with the gimp drivers and when I go to add a printer it will not auto detec them, also when I go to select one from the list manually, I have no choices other than the HP ones that were done during the OS install.

I've tried running the installls more than once, restart of the server etc and still can not get to have them install.

Any ideas.

Thanks,

Again I really have limited knowledge of the inner working of servers and there relationship with printers, but I think that the option needs to be enabled and maybe something needs to be activated via the "Sharing" option.

If that does not work I would try giving Apple Tech Support a call maybe they can help you out.
