Is there a way a can use Windows 7 64bit to act as a printer server to accomodate 32 and 64 bit drivers for 20 plus users. I do not want to buy Windows 2008 R2 64bit server license.

Ok, so I just add the network printer via standard tcp-ip port. Should the printers not be shared then?
I have about 20 users which needs to connect to all the network printers. How concurrent connections for Win 7 64bit?

Check the liscensing, Section 3e (or 3f, I don't remember exactly) states 20 Connections...
