1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our Combo Print Server. This Print Server allows your GDI/Host-based printer become a sharable device on the network.
GDI printer is a printer that has built-in support for Windows Graphical Device Interface (GDI), so it is no need to convert the output from Windows to another format such as PostScript or PCL language. GDI printers are sometimes called host-based printers because they rely on the host computer to rasterize pages. Because of that, almost none of Print Servers in the market can support GDI printer network sharing. This Combo Print Server implements a special technology, which allows it to communicate with the GDI printer as if it is connected directly to your computer. With the feature, the GDI printer is easy to become a shared device and you don’t need to worry about the compatibility with the GDI printers anymore. The Print Server supports GDI printer in the most popular operating systems: Windows 2000 SP4 above and XP SP1 above.
The Combo Print Server is the best solution for users to share GDI printer conveniently and easily. It offers the most flexible and manageable printing for GDI printer on your Local Area Network at an extremely low cost and with an absolute minimal setup and maintenance required.
