[comp.dcom.lans] Third party print spoolers

I would like to Thank everyone that has responded to my previous posting asking
for information about configuring printers on a Novell network.  The infor-
mation was very timely and useful.
  The information yielded the answer that if I wanted to hang printers off of
workstations and make them accessible to the entire network I would require
a separate print spooler program.  One is available from Novell but reportedly
this is mucho cash.  There are also a variety of third party spoolers on the
market.

   This brings me to my next dilemma.  Which of these third party spoolers 
 would be best to use.  I have been given names like PSPRINT and LANSPOOL,
 but I am by no means tied down to any one yet.  I would like one that would
 give the most control over printing possible while takeing up as little RAM
 on the workstations as possible.
 
   Any comments, suggestions, tales of personal woe, or tales of wonderous
 glory concernig any of the above mentioned packages or any other packages 
 would be greatly appreciated.
 
   I will be willing to summarize and post and significant results of this
 little survey if I am provided with enough feedback.
 
 Thanks in advance.
 Lou.
