Server (Windows 8.x, Windows 10, Windows Server 2012 R2) Prepare a Windows Machine You can either use a physical Windows machine or virtual machine (both laptop and desktop and make sure you have a legal copy of Windows). The author uses Windows Server 2012 R2, virtual machine hosted in KVM. Install your printer driver on Windows Machine Without this, the print_server.py will not work. Make sure you do a test print after you have installed your printer driver so that it will not cause any issue to printer_server.py Install python 3.x on your Windows machine Currently print_server.py is coded in python 3.x since the author wants to learn python 3.x.
