Use the print server to manage all 3 printers, have high capacity printers
with lots of memory, the printers may be best as network ready printers so
they interface directly with the network rather than take up more resources
from the server, the server then would just manage the spooled jobs and not
the direct processing of the jobs.

The print server itself would not really be memory or CPU hungry if it is
just being used as a print server, hard disk space may be an issue if there
are several thousand jobs in a short time as some print jobs can be quite
large in disk size
