UNC Path

[Re-Invented]

When i type in run \\server\printer i can not see the printer dialog box, i have networked the printer using this so it knows its there i can open the box from my printers.

I require this for a program as i have to type the UNC path for it, but it cant see it an ideas.

Server: Win 2000
Printer: HP P2015n

Thanks

First, can you access any other resources on the server?
Can you ping it?

I can access everything on the server, i can ping it fine, i can load up the config page by using its IP address its just i cant see it by using the path in start > run, and thats whats causing the problem as it has to have the UNC path for it to work in the text file.

When you're accessing it via the UNC notation are you doing it using the IP of the serve r or the name? Can you reach just \\server ?

Thanks for all the help guys, was a driver issue instead of using a P2015 driver, I used a 1320N driver instead, stupid HP drivers.

Thanks
