I've seen the same thing happening on a Compaq notebook [1] once,
though it had nothing to do with Office or a cutoff from the network,
but with a temp. shortage of memory. [2]
After a warm reboot all previously installed (network-)printers [3]
came back in Settings/Printers.

I don't think anyone can give you any advice anymore since you
reinstalled both win95 and office95. It's only logical that now you
haven't got anything left...
Have you tried reinstalling them after this cleanup? You must at least
be able to install a printer after a fresh installation.

[1] an LTE5000 if you're interested.
[2] I haven't had the interest to lay my hands on Office97 yet, since
the only things I read and heard about it was that it was too hungry
for resources: a few hundreds of HD-MB lost on installation and a min.
of 32 RAM-MB req. [4]
[3] at least 5 were installed, so it wasn't really a luser thing
[4] forget I wrote this if you have installed your Office97 on a PP
with 64MB or more. [5]
[5] then I don't know anymore and you should write to
bugs@microsoft.com

Cya,
Chris.
