Creative mass printing solution sought ;-)

[Jake]

Hi,

100 students are allowed to use their notebook computers during an exam
(but with no wired or wireless network to avoid intercommunications).

However they need to printout their work before they leave the room.

We have a few USB laser printers on roller tables, but how to roll out
the printer drivers etc...?

Creative suggestions welcome ;-)

Get ten flash disks and put the drivers on them.

I think your real bottleneck will occur when 100 students try
to print their stuff on "a few" (your words) USB printers.

perhaps avoiding
intercommunications
is what you should avoid.

Why print? Buy several USB flash drives and as the students are leaving
the exam room, have each one save his or her test to a flash drive using
a unique (pre-assigned) file name. The teacher (you?) can either read
the tests on a monitor or print them out later for review/markup, as
desired.

Do the students' hands fit a pencil?
