FWIW, I would strongly recommend not printing on the server. If you do in fact need server-side printing (as in printing where the server is located) then get a dedicated box running some client app that does the printing. I have seen servers to bad things as a result of server-side printing, from problems as simple as printer error message popping up waiting for someone to click OK, and worse. Get a cheap machine that does nothing but spew print jobs as needed.

While this is almost certainly true in the original poster's case, I'll just go ahead and point out that it's not always the case. I've worked on applications where server-side printing is what's needed.
