I need to set up a printing quota system on a particular printer. I've a network with 35 clients (200 users sharing these) and some b&w printers and a networked color laser printer. Users tend to print without even knowing what they are doing and therefore I need to set printerquotas for the users on the color printer. This printer has a NIC, but it is installed only on a Win2000 server, and shared from that server. How can I limit certain users preferably by group membership?

Sorry, not possible to use 3. party products (licencing cost). Unless this is freeware.

There is a software solution for this. It is called Megatrack. Try to find info at www.jetcaps.com. It is an HP's site for various printing solutions. Megatrack can do exactly what you're asking, but it is not a freeware.
