Help!

I help manage a Macintosh lab here on campus that contains 41 Macintosh SEs,
10 SE/30s, 2 LaserWriter II NTs, and a Mac II as a file server and print
spooler.  All machines are connected to the II via PhoneNet/AppleTalk. Up
until last week we only had 26 machines in this lab; then we doubled that.  I
connected the network after the installation and found everything OK except
the last four machines on the end of the network daisy-chain won't print
to the spooler!  The spoolers come up fine on the Chooser, as does the file
server, but when printing, AppleShare Print Server shows a job beginning to
spool, but never finishes.  In fact, it doesn't even get as far as giving
a Document name or a Chooser name in the print queue.

Our lab is laid out in the following manner:

Terminator---16 SEs---10 SE/30s---MacII---LW---LW---20 SEs---4 SEs---Terminator
                     LONG Cable ^             Problem Machines ^

Have we surpassed the limits of a PhoneNet Network?  What are they anyway?
What can we do about it?  Any help would be appreciated.

	Thanks in Advance.
