Hi Simon, You say that the print servers did not change? Are you running NETBEUI or NETBIOS on the print servers? I had to throw out two old print servers because they could only do NETBEUI and no NETBIOS. As you may already know, Samba does not work with NETBEUI.
Also, can you manually make a telnet connection to port 139 of these servers?
