Right now I have a printer (HP LaserJet 3055) showing Offline on the Server (Windows Server 2003).<br />
I can ping the printer.<br />
I can see the web interface of the printer.<br />
I know the printer is online.<br />
Yet when I print to it, the job just hold in the queue doing nothing.<br />
<br />
I did Restart the Print Spooler service -&gt; to no avail<br />
I did try to disable SNMP on the printer port -&gt; &quot;An error occured during port configuration. Operation could not be completed&quot;

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
