Windows 2003 print server

I intend on the migration of our print server that currently supports 200 printers to a virtual machine and I just wanted to know what experience people have either good or bad?  Found a few references, but I wanted to get a new look @ what your people could be made.

I have a total of 6 servers to Virtual Machine (Windows 2003 Server, SP2) printing runs thousands of remote printers (with printers on the other ends of the WAN). No problems. Each print server has 1024 MB of memory and CPU 1.

    OK, I need an 'Idiots guide' how to set up my ESX 3.5 U5 to a Windows Server 2003 server. I prefer to sync with one of the DC. either the PDC or a BDC, either is fine.

  • HP Laserjet installation on Windows 2012 print server

    Hello Forums HP

    I try to add a Hp Laserjet P4515 on a Server Windows 2012 print and update its parameters to itself all 6 trays installed.

    I realized that on a Windows Server 2003 print using HP PCL 5 universal print drivers by using the Automatic Configuration under device settings option in the printer properties. However, following the same procedure on the server of 2012 option Update configuration is missing.

    I left the configuration of the printer automatically select the driver which is listed as HP LaserJet P4515 PCL6 on the name of the driver class and Micorsoft Point and print on the Advanced tab.

    Does anyone know how to get the driver to update the config?

    Regards,

    Cam

    I finally got this working. Remove the printer and starting from scratch.

    I have downlaoded 32-bit and 64-bit drivers PCL6 and extracts into a folder. Started the installation of the new printer manually and unchecked the box detect automatically the driver. Come in 64 bit location extracted folder and allow the driver to install manually. When installation is completed I went the printer properties/sharing tab and select additional drivers and checked the x 86 button. Then, said the browser in the 32-bit extracted folder.

  • Problems of Flash player v11 on Windows 2003 Terminal Server upgrade

    Hello

    I am trying to upgrade of several Server Terminal Server to Windows 2003 32-bit, v5.2 IE Flash plugin version 11.1.102.63.  It did not work on the first two servers I tried, and later I concentrated my tests on one of them.  The version on the server before the upgrade attempt has been 10.3.181.14.

    Whenever I try the upgrade, the executable initially runs, but then does nothing.  The running process is visible in the Task Manager, with no resources of treatment and about 18 MB of memory.  Unless I kill the process manually, it will sit like that indefinitely.  If I try the installation again, I get a message advising me that a single instance of the process can run.

    I tried to reboot the server, I tried to install terminal server mode server running the installation, I tried to uninstall the previous version, I tried to reinstall the previous version (which works fine).  For some reason, this version will not work.

    Any suggestions as to the next step would be very welcome.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Windows 2008 R2 server slow printing

    We have about 5-6 servers Windows 2008 R2 in our virtual machine environment.  All of these servers are servers very low utilization, and they all work very well.  We have a few domain controllers, a SQL box and a few boxes of web application that is running IIS.  One of these domain controllers is a print server.  The print server works well, but it is very slow.  If you right-click on any printer that is added to any of the customers and go to properties, where the server is the management of print server, the client must wait 30 seconds or more for the upcoming dialog with the properties.  You can click between tabs, but the legs are also slow to react.

    This means that if you make changes to the print job or the margins, for example, it may take a minute of waiting between screens.

    Now, we had a physical Windows 2000 print server that has worked well until we got the VM environment, so I know the problem is in one of a few different areas.

    1. it could be the VM environment.

    2. it may be Windows 2008 R2 server config or the server software itself.

    3 might be x 64 bit cause a problem with 32-bit clients using the box.

    I have excluded #3 by a 32 bit 2008 Server on the VM environment of loading, loading of print management and then by loading a single printer and share it.  The problem is still there on the current server.  My next step is to try Windows 2003 server in virtual machine environment, but before I do, I want to throw this question very curious to the VMWare community.  All I have to do before moving on to more drastic measures?  There must be something I can do to solve the problem.

    Maybe it's the solution.  Will test:

    Hello

    As mentioned above, you will not find the Toshiba drivers designed for Windows 2003 R2 server.
    But don t worry, and don t give up.
    Windows XP drivers must simply be compatible and you should be able to install the Xp drivers on the Win2003 Server operating system.
