Thanks but a friend has suggested what to do:
On the client's guest accounts, when you set up a printer you need to know the exact name of the printer and where it is. For example, if your server name is NANA and you have an HP DeskJet 895Cse (and that is the share name of the printer) then you would type the following:
\\NANA\HP DeskJet 895Cse
in the dialog box for installing a printer. By default you will not have access to your server when using a guest account on the clients.
