Does PaperCut work on a VM ?
Yes. PaperCut will work fine on VMs such as VMware, EX Server, Microsoft Virtual Server, Hyper-V, VirtualBox, Xen, KVM, and QEMU. We do have many large customers now running PaperCut in virtualized environments (on both Windows and Linux).
You should take care not to skimp on RAM. Allocate a server class amount of RAM to your VM. 2.0 GB will be enough on most large networks.
