The network setup is here: http://snipid.net/network.jpg

Big fat server is what every computer connects to at work. IP's are assigned statically. Lets say 100.x.x.1 for A, 100.x.x.2 for B, and 100.x.x.3 for the router. All computers are suppose to be on the domain here.

Computers A and B need to connect to the printer on Z2. Computer Z2 is on the DMZ. Filesharing works without a problem. I can see the printer as well, but when I try to add it, it says the printer may be the wrong name or disconnected.

Well, Z1 has no problems getting to Z2's printer, so I don't know what the problem might be.

XP Pro is on all the machines, the router is a basic dlink wireless router (DI-524). The only reason we have it is because 1) we'd like wireless in the office, adn 2) need a DHCP testbed.

Anyone have any suggestions?
