Are the printers being pushed out via Group Policy? If that's the case it could be pushing out the incorrect driver.

Wouldn't that affect all the machines though not just these 3 ?

If you rolled them with a static address instead of DHCP with a reservation, there is a possibility of a duplicate IP address on the network. That will cause symptoms like you are having.

Wouldn't be the first time finding that this week.

Thank you I will take a look at that!

Just verified that it is DHCP, good guess though.

Is printer set up as a shared printer off a print server, or is it being pushed out as a local printer with a TCP/IP print queue?
-
Can you do a print test page?
Is the printer set as the default printer? -
Instinctively, I just want to downvote this post, because I hate printers so much.

OH ME TOO!!!!

Power cycle the printer itself, even though some user can print to it I have seen a power cycle fix weird print server issues
-
Now we have people having printer issues all over the building. I hate printers.

Instead of
\\server-dns\printshare, try\\server-ip\printshare -

Ok I finally got a test print to work, from the Print Server it's self.
But still can't print from the desktops.
All the printers that are down are the same model.
-
Check event viewer. I would probably go in to the printer manager and delete the drivers for that printer and reinstall them.
