    Email Documents to Printer

    All of our campus printers are networked through a Windows Server 2008 R2 print server. Does anyone know if there is an application available that would allow students to email documents to the print server, and then for the print server to automatically print them to a specified printer?

    Thanks.

    not exactly what you are after but maybe look at papercut's web print - you can upload to a site and then it prints it out

    I would recommend you look at Pull Printing also known as Follow Me Printing. We use PCounter for this but I believe PaperCut does the same. One queue and the job can be released at any machine setup on the system.

    I would also recommend papercut. It will do both the web based print and the follow me printing as mentioned above.
