The printer and each print client use their own network cable to connect to the network.

Print jobs sent by clients must not pass through a router to get to the printer.

Printer Server Topology

Printer Server Topology

An Ethernet LAN is used to interconnect the printer, printer server, and print clients. Print clients send their print jobs to the printer server where they are queued.The server then sends the jobs to the printer.The server also controls access to the printer.

INTRODUCTION

The printer server topology involves a computer, called a printer server. All print clients send their print jobs to the printer server. The printer server then sends the jobs to the printer. The network operating system (NOS) can be Microsoft NT Server, Novell NetWare, or UNIX.

In this scenario, print clients use the network to send print jobs directly to a computer that is configured as a printer server. The server then sends the jobs to the printer.

The server can receive and store multiple print jobs; this is called queuing. Jobs are sent to the printer in the sequence that they are received. This process relieves a client from having to process the print job and allows them to focus on other computing tasks. The server can also be configured for controlling access to the printer and recording all printing activity.

Shown below is a diagram of the printer server topology. A LAN that interconnects the printer, the print clients, and the printer server. The network can be a 10MB or 100MB Ethernet LAN that transports TCP/IP or IPX protocols.

Print jobs sent by clients must not pass through a router to get to the printer.
