Managers,
In an effort to consolidte and centralize our printing
spool management on Sun servers, I am planning to set
up a printer spool server (with HP jetdirect spool
installer program) and need some suggestion as to what
kind of sun hardware is suitable for this.
The print server will support around 160 printing
spools, which include printers from a variety of
locations (U.S., China, Korea, U.K, etc.) We have
about 40 UNIX servers, most of them have separate
printing spool setup.
I am looking at the SunFire 280R with the minimum
configuration (1GB mem, 36GB F-CAL drive, 1x900MHz). I
don't think a print server needs a whole lot of CPU
power. What do you guys suggest? If you have other
ideas regarding what is the best way of doing this
(redundancy, fault tolerance setup), please also let
me know.
Thanks.
