Server 2012 R2 print server. Deploying printers via GPO. Atvantages of vs Securtity Groups.

Our Windows Server 2008 R2 Print cluster decided to crash.  In a bind, a single server on Server 2012 R2.

I am tasked to build a production server and wondered if there is any advantage to deploying via group policy now vs. my current method.

We have a security group created for each print object (ex IT-printername) populated with machine name.  So, we have 400 GPOs created using item level targeting for delivery.  There are 30 departments scattered throughout our county. 

Our PCs are mostly Windows 7 but we have a few XP SP3 models for legacy applications in some departments.

Can you see a compelling reason to change now?

I am not a server guru so I hope I made my question informative enough.

John
