Peer-to-peer printing is more suitable for smaller networks. With peer-to- peer printing, you configure your Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0/2000 systems to print directly to the printer.

Your printer can be shared in a network environment by connecting it directly to the network via an HP JetDirect external or internal print server. This configuration provides better performance than printing through a computer, as well as flexibility in preparing a location for the printer.

The HP JetDirect print server can be used in both client-server and peer- to-peer network configurations.
