Is there some PD program which would allow a PC to be a print server?

What I would like to do:  Have a printable file available on some PC,
ftp to the print server, send the printable file to the print server
to device PRN.

Hopefully, the print server will recognize the special device PRN and
queue the file to a spooler for printing.

It would be even more wonderful if the server program could be a TSR
so that the print server PC could also be used as a PC while queuing
takes place.
