Hi,

If I am right, member server is just a machine with Windows Server OS, joined Active Director Domain Controller machine.

Active Director has been deployed at Domain Controller. That’s why users and OU are also at Domain Controller.

Can I deploy print server and network printer at member server?

With Regards
