Hi,
The company I work for has a plotter for CAD drawings and its

win 2003 server and on one machine i am trying to reinstall the
plotter but, it does show any where on the server i have the ip
address of the plotter because it has its own network port and it is
shared. Even if I try to install this plotter using the exact ip
address it will not install can anyone help me to find the solution

So the plotter is set up as a local computer on the server, via a standard
TCP/IP port, and shared? Can you see the share?

Can you ping the IP address of the plotter from this workstation?
