3. Combo Print Server

This Combo Print Server supports GDI Print Server. Users can share GDI printer through the Combo Print Server.

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 printer relies on the bi-directional communications between printer and computer frequently, so that the majority of print servers cannot support it.

The Combo Print Server can communicate with the GDI printer as if it is connected directly to your computer. The supported OS in this mode is Windows 2000 SP4 above and Windows XP SP1 above. The GDI Print Server mode doesn’t support Windows 98SE/ME/NT, Linux/Unix or MAC OS. For the detailed applications, please refer to the following chapters.
