We have a large print environment and are about to deploy around a dozen new print servers to support it throughout the enterprise.
Our user base is approximately 75% 32 bit clients and 25% 64 bit clients. Current a mix of XP and Windows 7 but moving towards homogenizing to Win 7.
What server OS would you recommend we deploy?
Server 2012 would be top of MY list, but we are still about a year away from deploying it in the infrastructure, so it is off the table.
The vast majority of our current print server environment is Server 2003 32 bit…That needs to change, but there is some confusion about the way forward
There is some support for Server 2008 32 bit and some for Server 2008r2
I would love to have your opinion.
