Start-up question: print server
 
Hi,
I have a newbie question.

My friend has a small office with 6 computers running Windows XP home.
They all share a DSL connection and each has a seperate printer and there is one fancy office printer also.
He would like monitor printing activity and users. Is a Linux server running Samba the way to go? and can I just use SuSE 9 pro or do I have to get a business server. Can I perhaps install Linux on one box as a dual-boot. Or maybe just turn one box over to Linux completely.
Want to keep it simple and cheap and then start to learn this.

Thanks for any pointers.

I figured it out.
I just need to check printer options and select save copy.
