Networked printer vanishes - 2 computers connected only one vanishes?

I have 3 computers using 1 printer and the one attached is fine and so is the end one but the one in the middle vanishes every morning so it has to be re-added, printer is shared ok onto network but middle computer cannot hold onto printer. Have tried everything I can think of. It only vanishes the next day, it doesn't vanish if rebooted during the day. Any ideas?

Answers:
Sounds like the printer and computer could be using the same IP address? How are you assigning the IP addresses on the network?
