  1. Print Services

  2. Objectives • Understand Print Server terms and concepts • Understand how printing works • Print Server Considerations • Printer Hardware Considerations • Install Print Server • Install Local Printer • Install Network Connected Printer

  3. Objectives • Connection to a Shared Printer at Client • Deploying Printers using Group Policies • Using the Rundll32 command to deploy printers • Point and Print Functionality • Use Print Management to Manage multiple print servers • Use Print Management to move printers and their queues

  4. Print Server • A device which manages communication between the printer and the print clients • In most cases a printer server is a computer running the Windows OS • Windows OS functioning as Print Server provides many services: • Provides drivers to clients • Stores documents that are spooled for printing • Maintains associated print queue • Provides security and auditing of printer access

  5. How Printing Works • Two main data types for print drivers • Enhanced metafile format (EMF) • Uses Printer Control Language (PCL) • EMF documents are sent to print server with minimal processing and then further processed on the print server • RAW • RAW is most commonly used with PostScript page description language. • RAW documents are fully processed on client before being sent to print server and aren’t modified by print server

  6. Standard EMF Printing Process

  7. Standard RAW Printing Process

  8. Sizing Print Server Hardware and Optimizing Configuration • Configuration considerations of Print Server: • Operating System • CPU • RAM • Disk Space • Network Card Speed

  9. Sizing Print Server Hardware and Optimizing Configuration • Hardware Considerations for Printer • Type • RAM • Paper or Envelope Trays • Duplexers • Internal Hard Drive • Photo Printing • Large format printing • Direct attached vs network attached
