Linda, 

A few things... are you running your own DNS server, or just using hosts?
If running DNS, could be a resolving issue, espeically if FTP is not
listed in your zone files, along with PTR reversing IP addresses...  Do
you have your printers assigned to IP addresses?  Could be a resolving
issue again, or maybe a router problem.. Try pinging to the problem IP FTP
addresses and the printers.  Or run Tcpdump or scan with nmap or xnmap to
see what the issues are. I am assuming these are on a LAN.
