Task 4: Installing and configure the Print and Document Services Role

Print and Document Services is a server role in Windows Server 2012 R2 that enables you to share printers and scanners on a network, set up print servers and scan servers, and centralize network printer and scanner management tasks. You can do these tasks using the Print Management and Scan Management Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-ins. You can use the snap-ins to monitor network printers and scanners, and to manage Windows print servers and scan servers in your organization.

Case Study: Mt. Mercy University was founded in 1928. It's a private, Catholic university located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The University was disappointed with their service provider and was looking for a new partner. Once they partnered with Marco, they experienced the benefits of their managed print service (MPS) program. A total of 92 new copier/printer devices were installed and repositioned throughout the campus over a smooth, three-week period. A print software called PaperCut was also implemented and it provides users an ID number to access all networked devices. This made it possible for the University to assign and track print usage by student, department and project type, providing control over print output and helping them better manage costs.
