What Is Printer Pooling?
E: Printer pooling combines multiple physical printers into a single logical unit.
To client computers, the printer pool appears to be a single printer.
When jobs are submitted to the printer pool, any available printer in the printer pool can process them.
Printer pooling increases the scalability and availability of network printing.
If one printer in the pool is unavailable (for example, from a large print job, a paper jam, or being offline), all jobs are distributed to the remaining printers.
If a printer pool does not have sufficient capacity, you can add another printer to the printer pool without performing any client configuration.
You create a printer pool on a server by specifying multiple ports for a printer.
Each port is the location of one physical printer.
In most cases, the ports are an IP address on the network, instead of a local LPT or USB connection.
