Printing by tcp/ip Win2k
Is there a limit to the number of ports you can have under win2k server ???

If I'm not mistaken, TCP/IP has 65535 ports available to it. Of course many are usually reserved for certain apps. IE FTP uses 21, HTTP 80, etc etc, so w/o a more specific question with details, I don't know if we can help you more.Go Bunny GO!

Okay how many IP printers can you install on a win2k server using microshaft software.
Someone reckoned theres a max of 30.Comment

Are you planning on hooking up more that 30 printers to it?"I dream of a better world where chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned."Comment

Theres already 30 colour printers on it. The printers all print out very slowly. Reduce the number of printers and everything seems okay.
The person looking at it reckons that the server is hitting the limit of the max number of printers.
Spooling turned off apparently so they're printing directly to the printers concerned.Comment

Surely they are all on different IP's in which case they most likely use the same port
When you own your own business you only have to work half a day. You can do anything you want with the other twelve hours.Comment

Also ealier in the year when all the students were using the colour printers, just before the deadline a lot of print outs failed half way through.Comment

All different ip's otherwise you'd have one hell of a problem.Originally posted by Taz
