Network Print Configurations
Peer To Peer
In a Peer To Peer environment, a printer driver is installed on a workstation that is connected to a printer. The printer driver resides only on the workstation. In this setup, workstation users maintain their own printer defaults and configurations, allowing different printer settings for each user.
Through a Network Print Server
In a network print server environment, a printer driver is installed on a server and shared with other servers and workstations on the network. The printer driver is downloaded to the workstation from the server. In this network setup, a Network Administrator generally maintains the printer defaults and configuration.
