The number of print servers in an organization tend to grow organically. They grow for many reasons including: geographic distribution of sites, multiple business application/suites or operating system environments, organizational structure, and limitations on scalability. In addition, application servers often are defacto print servers whether they print directly to printers or another print server. However, these print servers cost money to acquire, maintain, and administer. When there are more print servers than necessary these costs can be significant.
2. Costs Are On
The Rise
As the complexity of print infrastructures increases,
organizations are forced to increase the number of print servers
on their networks. This growth can be attributed to several
factors including, geographic distribution of sites, multiple
business application/suites or operating system environments,
organizational structure, and limitations on scalability. Along with
this growth comes the continued cost to acquire, maintain, and
administrate. When there are more print servers than necessary
these costs can become quite significant.
