The only parts of the real "r2" that SBS 2003 R2 gets is FSRM and MMC 3.0. http://blogs.technet.com/sbs/archive/2006/02/28/420825.aspx More tech details there. The printer management console doesn't need a schema update that I recall.. you just need the R2 install on that server.  I don't remember (don't think) I did anything on my DC when I enabled the Printer Management console on the member server.

We don't have any plans to upgrade to R2 in the foreseeable future so we'd basically be running W2K3 with the R2 schema for several months or years.  Does anyone see any potential issues with that?
