New to networking and although I’ve installed printers to workstations, I’ve never installed a new printer to a server. I only know that an IP address is to be reserved for the new printer through DHCP if the printer software does not scan the network and find an unused address. If there is a simple how to with pictures I would appreciate it. This is Server 2003. Much thanks for any guidance

Jump to PostIm confused, is this a network printer (it has an ethernet port) or are you connecting it to the server itself?
Jump to Postin that case - no need to connect it to a server, unless you want to advertise it through AD.
printer installation CD should do everything for you
