Do you meet the requirements listed under "Additional things to consider
before you use this solution".

What versions of Windows are the clients?

<pray>please don't say Windows 95...</pray>

Paul,

the clients are all windows XP. printers currently on 2000 servers with sp4
going to win2k03 servers

Yes, the clients sound fine! I am by no means an expert, and all I can
suggest at this point is that you go through the "additional things to
consider..." section with a fine-tooth comb.

Additional things to consider before you use this solution
. The solution in the MoreInformation section works only if clients
use DNS or another name resolution method that incorporates DNS when they
connect to the print server. Clients cannot take advantage of this solution
if they: . Are connected directly by Internet Protocol (IP) to the print
servers.
. Use only network basic input/output system (NetBIOS).
. Use Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) but do not use WINS
reverse lookup.
 
Such as what? Maybe something can be done to get them resolved, but not if
the specifics are not made known.
