NLB Print Server support for Windows Server 2012 R2

Hello,

 

We have a customer who wants to install Print Server in NLB environment because Print Server redundancy is necessary.

But we already know that Print Server configuration in NLB is not supported officially, in Windows Server 2008.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/954420

We think NLB mechanism has not been changed from Windows Server 2008 but we would like to know whether Print Server configuration in NLB is supported or not in Windows Server 2012 R2 just in case.

 

Could you please let me know Print Server configuration in NLB is supported at Windows Server 2012 R2?

 

 

Thanks,
