Hi James,
In your original email on this subject, you stated that "simple screen dumps to printers". Unless you are using PSCREEN, or similar, your users may be bypassing the HP3000 completely. Just wanted to point that out.

Can you swap printers? Does it follow the printer or the port?

There have been no changes to the network setting on either the printers or the HP3000. Both printers and the HP3000 sit on the same LAN. All the printers can be pinged from the HP3000 without delay. There are no other noticable symptoms of a general network problem. Internal and external network connections for interactive users are not experiencing any delay or exhibiting unusual behaviour.
The HP3000 had a disc drive replaced withing the last month. However, that was finalized at least two weeks ago and this problem only surfaced yesterday.
There have been no equipment additions or removals within the past six months, and possibly for much longer.
The network printers are shared by our Active Directory members. Printing from these sources were unaffected.
The difficulty that I have with investigating this is that the problem is infrequent, intermittent, and evidently cures itself without intervention.

Notwithstanding that the utility is supposed to be available on the HP3000, I can find no program on the HP3000 that appears to be traceroute (tracert).
