The ultimate goal is to direct printer traffic through this virtual server which, if I'm not mistaken, will also allow us to set up printers as a group in AD and give users access to the group which would prevent us from having to install the printers seperately for each user who needs to use a specific printer.
So, if you don't mind just to clarify, this can not be done with VMware Player? It would require Workstation at least but would be best to run under ESXi?
