We had power outage and when I came in next am computer (Win XP/SP 2) was
off. When I tried to print, network printer was not in printer list. Printer
is HP network printer w/internal print server. All other computers on network
were not affected by whatever happened.

I tried to add printer back w/no luck. Printer does not show up when
searching. I tried IP address, printer name and could not see it on the
network. I've shut down computer and printer w/no luck.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Does the printer appear to the other computers?

can you ping the IP address of the printer from your computer?
have you power cycled the printer?

If the printer does not show up as a shared network resourse when you browse
\\ServerName, it most likely is *offline* in some way.

My apology Bob, I should have stated that to start with. Although other
computers were shut down due to power outage, only one was affected.
