printer

On my network I have three win 2k and 4 unix machines(sun 7). At on time I could print from the unix machines but now all I can print from is the windows machines. The print server is on a window machine. When I boot the unix machine it show's the printer is recognized. when I ping the printer it say's it's alive. On the NFS sever it shows it's there. What do I do. I am new to unix, help thanks

Some of the commands you could use (check the man pages for options)
lpstat
lpr
lpadmin
lpc
lpsched

You wrote that "At on time I could print from the unix machines "
I take it as "at one time" - So, what changed? I have UNIX systems that have been up for 616 days. The only time they break is when someone changes something (usually me, but I don't usually get caught either).
