1.1Purpose

The ThinPrint® technology enables the transmission of compressed and bandwidth-optimized print jobs within a network. Print jobs are compressed using the server component of the .print technology, the so-called .print Engine.

The server sends the compressed print data to a device with the implemented .print Client. This client then decompresses the print data, transferring it to any printer.

The TPG60 (ThinPrint®Gateway60) contains a completely integrated ThinPrint® .print client. This ThinPrint .print client allows you to receive and decompress print data. The TPG60 supports the decoding of print data that was encrypted via SSL. The TPG60 also supports the features .print AutoConnect and .print Connection Service.

•The feature .print AutoConnect allows you to automatically create the required printer objects for the relevant client on the server. .print AutoConnect will automatically connect all selected printers on the server with a ThinPrint® port; provided that templates exist.

•The .print Connection Service allows you to print to .print clients, that are found behind a firewall, for example. This allows the connection via masked networks as well as the assignment of the relevant print job to the respective end device.

1.2System Requirements

The TPG60 has been designed for the use in TCP/IP-based networks. A ThinPrint® server must be integrated within this network. The network printers involved must support socket printing. If you want to use the .print Connection Service, you need a license.
