WS2008R2 would make a good print server. You want to throw some memory and disk 
at this and you should be good. Process is an important part of running a 
stable print environment, perhaps more so than the technical side. Depending on 
how important print is to you, you can cluster the service.

Subject: Print Server suggestions

I hate to toss such a generic question out there but I have zero experience in 
this area. We are putting up a new building this summer, replacing our larges 
which would be the High School.  We have always just used network attached 
printers and let the users run free. Less hassle for us but probably not the 
most cost effective way to do it. So I am thinking 2008 R2 print server and 
some sort of usage monitoring software.

Any ideas on suggested software to monitor all of this, or any ideas on a 
better design?
