Printer Sharing to 50 PC's using WinXP Pro

I have to share a printer to 50 pc's, but win XP Pro only allows 10 sessions.

Is there any setting that could change this?

I tried with gpedit.msc, regedit, and Computer management, but i can't find anything that allows me to change the amount of sessions allowed.

Feedback will be much appreciated.

Thanx beforehand

Nope that is a limitation of the operating system, you need to move towards a windows server operating system.
