PRINTERS
On the Printers page, you can select a printer pool to install printer services, and to view
information about the printers that are connected to the DiskGO. You can assign a name

Please note when printer services are being configured, the DiskGO is briefly unavailable
to client users. Therefore, configuring printer services is recommended as part of a
