The requirements for an installation of the PrintPath Server component will vary based on a number of factors, including the number of printers and print volume in your organization. Please see the table below to determine the server requirements for your organization, but keep in mind that this is only meant to serve as a guide based on typical usage.
Daily Print Volume | Hardware Requirements | Microsoft SQL Server Edition | Separate Database Server Recommended? |
---|---|---|---|
5,000 Pages | 2 CPUs 4 GB RAM | Express | No |
25,000 Pages | 4 CPUs 8 GB RAM | Standard | No |
50,000 Pages | 4 CPUs 8 GB RAM | Standard | Yes |
100,000 Pages | 8 CPUs 16 GB RAM | Standard | Yes |
300,000 Pages | 8 CPUs 16 GB RAM | Standard | Yes |

In addition, a PrintPath Server installation requires at least 750 MB of free hard disk space for installation files (additional hard disk space required for user data).
A domain controller server may NOT be used as the hardware server for the PrintPath Server. Also, in environments with heavy printing or multiple locations, it is recommended that the PrintPath Server be loaded on a separate hardware server than the existing print servers. |
