Unable to install shared printers located at 2008 PrintServer using \\NetbiosName

Hi

I have installed a bunch of printers and shared them on our Windows server 2008 STD (NOT R2).  Problem is our Windows 7 machines cannot install them by going to \\PrintServerNetBIOS name.  They are listed however you cannot open or connect to printers to install them

Error: Windows cannot connect to printer.  Operation failed with error 0x00000002


The only fix is to restart the windows 7 machines.  Sometimes it works or it doesn't.  I can access the regular network shares on that server just fine.  Also if I use \\192.168.x.x it works too but not netbios or fqdn.

Would you please help?
