Introduction to Network Printing

Network Printing Configurations

Networks consist of computers connected together to share

information and resources, such as printers. On a “client-server”

network, client computers send print jobs to dedicated server

computers that control the use of each printer. On a “peer-to-peer”

network, dedicated servers are not used. Instead, each computer

is configured to send print jobs to the printer directly.

Figure A-1 Basic Network Printing Configurations

Client-server printing is typically used in medium to large networks

where dedicated servers are used to manage printing needs of many

users. Client-server networks use network operating systems

(NOS) such as Novell NetWare and Microsoft Windows .

Peer-to-peer printing is more suitable for smaller networks.

peer-to-peer networks, each user configures his Microsoft

system

to print directly to the printer.
