Printing over metro e

I have someone who has been trying to push for printing over the network from one facility to the next. I have been preaching that this is not a good idea and have shut it down every time. I have seen several times in the past when an accidental print job goes haywire and clogs a printer full of hundreds of pages of nothing, the same thing, etc... I don't want my metro Ethernet connection to be bogged down by a simple 1 page print job that turns into an accidental 1000 page network nightmare. Does anyone have a best practice on this? Should I be looking into a solution instead of becoming the problem? I feel this is a legitimate concern of my companies network which also has VoIP and ticketing/credit cards.
