Network printing architectures
Client/Server configuration
Definition
In this configuration, the printing resources administration is centralised. The client workstation is
connected to a Print Server linked to the print system (controller).
Recommended for large scale LANs.

Attributes
Explanation of the above scheme:
• (1) is the method to apply for the driver installation (see the drivers User Manual).
• (2) SMB ‘Point and Print’ is the Océ recommended connection to the Print Server.
Advantages:
- No installation CD is necessary.
- Important gain of time when upgrading the printer driver in large networks. The printer driver
needs to be upgraded manually on the print server only, and the workstations drivers are then
automatically upgraded.
- The same version of the printer driver is available and used by all workstations users.
• (3) Océ recommended connection to the print system.
It is compatible with the ‘High’ and ‘Medium’ security levels.
NOTE
The 'Medium' and the 'High' security levels are available for all the Océ TDS/TCS
systems.
• (4) 'SMB local' means a local installation of the printer driver on a workstation, and an SMB
connection to the Print Server.
This connection type does not have the advantage of (2) SMB ‘Point and Print’.
