I have Tally line printer installed on windows 98 operating systems. and
when i installed it on server2003 as a network printer, the windows 98
lost its network connectivity with every system of network and on
server2003 it shows "printer not found on server. unable to connect".

So, how can i install network printer on server2003. Please help me.

try adding one of these lines to your autoexec.bat file:

Join a Printer Share
NET USE [LPTx:] \\ComputerName\printer_share /PERSISTENT:YES

Join a Printer Share - with a "long" share name
NET USE [LPTx:] "\\ComputerName\printer_share"
