The number of printers/channels that can be supported on an Eagle server is 9998. In the past, the number was limited to 99. The information below explains the capabilities and restrictions of having printer numbers greater than 99.
A number greater than 99 is allowed in legacy function MPS for printer types E (Network Printer), L (Price Checker Printer), and N (Non-Printer Channel).
A number greater than 99 is not supported for serial printers, which are types I (Invoice Printer) or P (Standard Report Printer).
Using more than 99 printers/channels requires using Eagle for Windows applications to run and monitor reports, and to manage report queues. The only legacy applications that allow displaying/entering a printer or channel number greater than 99 are SEQ, MEQ, MSP, RABO, QUE, and MTR (only for the "Default Printer" in MTR).
