36.2 Planning for Print Services

Consider the following information as you plan your iPrint installation:

  • We recommend that you record your planning decisions on a planning worksheet for future reference.

  • iPrint has no additional RAM requirements.

  • Most iPrint installations (even in large enterprises) do not require additional disk space for associated print job spooling.

    However, if you anticipate very heavy print usage and want to plan for additional disk space in that regard, the iPrint spooler area is located in the /var partition or directory structure on OES Linux servers. On NetWare servers, you designate the location when creating the Print Manager object.

  • To finish planning your iPrint installation, refer to the information for your server platform:

    • For NetWare: Novell iPrint Server in the OES NetWare Installation Guide

    • For Linux: Novell iPrint in the OES Linux Installation Guide
