Look in the event log of the domain controller for when they are getting
removed (pruned) from the AD. The Domain controller must be able to
enumerate printers on the print server. I have seen the DC delete the print
objects because the DC was disallowed access to the print server. If the DC
cannot determine the printers exist on the print server they will be removed
from AD.
Pick up the setprinter.exe tool in the Windows resource kit. You can
republish all the printers from script or cmd .
setprinter \\server 7 dwAction="publish"
