Something must have changed but I believe you that you don't know what
it is. The printers should be configured on only one machine and the
other(s) should pick up the configuration info from that one machine
(the server). Is that what you are doing?
What is harder to do is to have a machine with a local printer pick up
the info on the printers configured on the server. Is that what you are
trying to do?

Which is the situation in your LAN?
