PRINTER JUST STOPS!!!

HI GUYS,

WE JUST DID A NEW INSTALL FOR A CLIENT.
SERVER 2003 WITH 6 DUMB TERMINALS LOGGING ONTO SERVER. THEY HAVE TWO PRINTERS CONNECTED TO THE SERVER VIA USB AND TERMINALS PRINT TO THAT. THEN I HAVE A NETWORKED PRINTER(TCP PORT).
EVERY NOW AND THEN THE PRINTER JUST STOP PRINTING. IT SAYS ERROR PRINTING. AFTER I RESTART THE SERVER ALL WORKS. NO PATTERN. SOMETIMES 2 OF THEM WORK AND SOMETIMES NONE.

I AM GOING MAD. UPDATED DRIVERS. TRIED DIFFERENT ONES. CHECKED FIREWALL. CHECKED CABLES. CHECKED PRINTERS. NO LUCK. AND NO ERRORS IN THE EVENT LOG

PLEASE HELP

Can you give some more info about the print drivers used, print processor used on the print queues.
is "Standard TCP/IP port" used as port for the networked printer.
does the USB connected printers also stop printing with "Error printing"? or is it only the network printer
