In the previous chapter it was stated that the Print Management tool provides a central location from which the print services for an entire network may be managed. So far we have only looked and managing the print server running on the local computer. In this section we will look at adding remote servers to the local Print Management configuration. For the purposes of this example a theoretical configuration consisting of two Windows Server 2008 systems named ''winserver-1'' and ''winserver-2'' is assumed. Both systems have the print services role installed and Print Management on ''winserver-1'' will be configured to also manage print services on ''winserver-2''. This is achieved by first launching Print Management on the local ''winserver-1'' system (''Start -> Administration Tools -> Print Management'') and right clicking on the ''Print Servers'' node of the tree hierarchy in the left hand pane and select the ''Add/Remove Servers'' option.

From the resulting menu, select the ''Add/Remove Servers'' option. The resulting dialog box displays the currently configured print servers under the management of local Print Management. If no remote print servers have been added previously the only server listed will be the local system. To add additional print servers eitehr enter a comma separated list of server names, or use the ''Browse'' button to locate servers on the network. When one or more servers have been selected, click on the ''Add to list'' button to add the servers to the list. The following figure illustrates the ''Add/Remove Servers'' dialog box configured with both the local and remote servers:
