Windows Server 2008 Print Services

2. Introduction to the Windows Server 2008 Print Services Guide

This guide provides an architectural approach to designing the infrastructure for Windows Server 2008 Print Services. It describes an approach that analyzes printing needs, designs printer pools, and then designs print servers with enough memory and spooler capacity to avoid performance bottlenecks and serve print clients accurately and reliably. The guide leads the reader through the design process, first examining and assessing print services that are already in place, then using the print requirements of the organization to produce an infrastructure design that will deliver the desired performance and availability using only the infrastructure that is necessary.
