3.1.2 When Printing via the Server Computer
Your print data is sent to a print server (the shared computer), then is sent from the
print server (the shared computer) to the printer. This method is recommended for
larger networks because it lets the print server manage the flow of print data.
This Network Card has four methods of printing via the server computer. Select the
method that best suits your need and proceed to the appropriate section.
