Thanks Naomi. I have looked at doing as suggested, but to have 400+ computers running without problem and only this one not having APRINTERS() work properly. It leads me to think that it has to be an issue with the firewall, user rights or something else. Its the something else I'm interested in since the issue suddenly occurred after 2 years of it working properly.
