SBS 2008 R2: "access denied" when trying to add some network printers


we have brand new sbs 2008 r2 server , trying add company's ricoh mp 4500 multifunction printer default printer. first problem ricoh not listed "printer" in network listing, instead seen "other devices".

second problem when try add via control panel wizard ->printers->"add printer"->"the printer want isn't listed"->"add printer using tcp/ip address or hostname"-> using ip address returns "access denied". same response hp laserjet p2015dn, hp 2430tn, , few other printers on network, too. but, able add hp 2025n no problem. no other pc or server in our network has access problems them.

i can add ricoh shared printer via computer on network, , works direct printing, our erp printing server software(liason messenger) returns errors in configuration.

my questions are:

1) why not seen printer in network listing? because multi-function device?

2) there way add printer through different method?

3) causing "access denied" message?

seemed have found solution myself. needed set print server , print server management tools in server manager explained here -  http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/setting_up_a_windows_server_2008_print_server
