I just have points for you to check to see if one of them might be it since I don't know how your network is set up. They are simple points.
1. the computer that you used before and the one that is now having the problem, did you have to sign in to that computer to use your profile on it , and did you do it on the next computer? If you have profiles with differant passwords, only one will work. So set them all to the same thing. Username and Password.
2. if you assign usernames and passwords from the server you might want to reset them if it doesn't mess your e-mail account if you have such a thing on your network.
3. This part of the first one. If this is a small network, you may also want to make sure that you have the same profile on the server, with the password you are using, and that it has permission to use the printer, the same goes for the the computer that won't let you print.
Did that help or did I just list things you already tried?
Also, since you are talking about a server, you should have all accounts password protected on it, even if you are the only one living there.
