Print Servers on VMWare

[Guest JayDee]

We are looking to set up a few print servers with as many queues as

possible - we expect light utilization of most of the printers (a few

documents an hour maybe). According to what I've read in Microsoft's

"Print Server Scalability and Sizing Technical Overview" document,

having upwards of 1,500 (or even 2,000) queues on a server should not

be a problem.

 

I'm thinking about using a VMWare virtual server instance to perform

this function, and I have not been able to locate much on the internet

regarding the relationship between VMWare and high-utilization print

servers. If you know something (warnings, etc), please let me know!

 

Thanks...
