your WAN admins will tolerate). PostScript in the printer pushes a lot of the rendering out onto the printer, and dramatically reduces the amount of data sent over the wire. snip That said, 330 or so printers per instance seems a bit high. I've tried up to about 200 per instance in cases

Hard to say. Do the printers all speak PostScript? The printer command language and what you're printing to them will make a big difference (if you have to rasterize lots of stuff into PCL or have lots of bitmap graphics, the volume of data transferred will be the limiting factor, as will what
