GPrint
As part of the GridWeaver project, we built a demonstration printing service using this framework …
This is based on our production LCFG/LPRng technology
The central configuration specifies the machines which are eligible to be print servers
Printers are detected automatically and allocated to print servers, balancing the load
If a new print server appears, queues are reallocated
If a print server dies, the queues for its printers are transferred to another server
If a printer dies, its jobs are transferred to another queue
