Cluster, configuring the printer spool

When you start to configure the printer spool in a cluster you might follow the Microsoft doc about it, it's easy to follow and you'll avoid failures in the future.

Basically you will have to add the spooler as a group resource into de cluster, but not using the standard one called "Group resource" but creatinga a new one with another name.

The drivers must be installed in some places:
- In the cluster itself (the lcoation is the network resource og the resource group)
- In every node of the cluster: It means that you will install the printer drivers in as much as servers are part of the cluster

And take into account the LPT port, becasue is a local port.
