Configuring the Printer Port using the PRINTSERVER Print
Monitor
As far as socket printing is concerned, a printer port must be added
to every client intended for printing. This section describes the
installation and configuration of TCP/IP and HTTP ports on the
client. The PRINTSERVER Print Monitor is available for configuration
purposes.
What is the
PRINTSERVER Print
Monitor?
The PRINTSERVER Print Monitor constitutes the connecting piece
between the computer and the print server. It ensures the transfer of
print data from the client to the print server by means of direct TCP/IP
ports. The PRINTSERVER Print Monitor can be installed on every client
intended for printing. It is not possible to share the printer.
Which Ports Are
Available?
Using the PRINTSERVER Print Monitor you can adapt printing to
your individual needs. You can define whether printing is done via a
TCP/IP port or a HTTP port. The following features can be realized
when printing via HTTP ports:
• Encryption of print data
• Identity check of the users and devices before they gain access
to the print server (authentication)
• Using a proxy server, print jobs can be sent to a print server via
the Internet
• Detailed and print server specific error messages
