You may need to do a spanning-tree portfast on the port of the printer.
Without portfast turned on, the port doesn't actually start passing data
until spanning-tree has determined that the port is not going to create a
loop. This will affect things like bootp, dhcp and logging into NT domains
on bootup.

Subject: bootp config
Trying to configure an IBM 7913 coax/twinax for a printer using BootP from
out AIX UNIX server. For some reason we cannot get it to flow through our
C5509 and C5500 switches. Before we installed the switches, using purely
Cisco routers this was not a problem. Bootp is the only option to configure
these devises. Have tried BootP programs from a laptop but are not working
either. Could be the Win2000 conflicting with my old pgms. We have IP Helper
turned on pointing to the BootP server. Any ideas?
