Printer Quota Software

rlculver · 21 Jan 2007 at 13:11

Hi,

I am looking to install a Windows 2003 R2 server shortly and would like some recommendations on printer quota software.

I would like the following facility : -

* Give a group of users a limit to the number of pages they can print.
* Prompt for a password in order to purge a print job to the printer.

Any good software packages whiuch can do this? Open source ones would be great also, if their are such ones around

Many Thanks

I know of Pharos, which my Uni use, presumably not open source though and I guess probably quite expensive.

is very nice, the client sits in a little systray icon and the manager also supports the windows AD

both my old school and college use it

EDIT: once again, isn't open source, and i have never seen a OpenSource Print Quota thingy
