Advanced Configuration

The Printer Tab > Internet Printing

Internet Printing allows you to automatically print any e-mails that are sent to a specific e-mail account on your network. This is especially useful for printing information when you are not connected to the network. You can print from any location where you can access e-mail.

For example, you can have three different configurations for your printer: Logical Printer 1 for landscape orientation, Logical Printer 2 for double- sided copies, and Logical Printer 3 for manual feed. Then configure the Logical Printers on the Logical Port tab, so Logical Printers 1, 2, and 3 will be mapped to the physical printer on the PrintServer’s USB port.
