MS apparently decided to drop Print Services for Mac on it's x64 version of
Win 2003 sever. I have to move to this version for some hardware related
issues and I have 20+ Mac's that need to be able to print. Does anyone have
a way around this?

You can set up your Macs to print directly to your printers via
AppleTalk or Bonjour (IP printing).

Or if you insist your Macs print through your server then you can get a
third party print server such as Group Logic's ExtremeZ-IP
<http://www.grouplogic.com/products/print_server/overview.cfm>.

Hope this helps!
