This is a baby question but none of the howtos and website seem to provide
the answer.
Does a "print server" have to be equipped with more then one printers to be
called a print server?
If so, are extra parallel ports installed on the hardware, along with
multiple printers? (I assemble my own computers and have no clue how this
could be done)
If not, then why should it be called a print server? In this case, all
clients in a peer-to-peer network are by definition "print servers" too?
Sorry if this appears too obvious. I spent most of my working life in small
business/self-employment which deprived me of first-hand contact with real
dedicated server LANs, let alone any LAN except what I recently built with
Linux/Samba.
