Printer Server Setup?

parttimetechguy · 04-18-2008, 01:52 PM

hi hi^^

I'm not sure if I'm putting this in the right section of the forums, but I'll start here and see where it takes me.

I have a small network set up

Server Running NT
13 workstations that are connected in the DOMAIN
and 2 Print servers.

I was looking to replace one of the print servers, because it only has 1 usb port....and 2 parallel ports that I can no longer use after upgrading printers.

I tried searching the forum for a guide to installing a new print server but didn't have much luck...

was hoping if I can get a little help....maybe a step by step outline or an external link that has an outline or something along those lines??

Thanks once again,
Some things in life are just simply awsome....
This forum would be one of them =D

and...to add a little backstory,

I wasn't the one who installed and setup the network...it was already all layed out by a pro!

I'm comfortable replacing workstations, and making sure it's connected back to the domain, and also that it can print,
.

but I've never replaced a print server before....
