(→ P.5-5)Notez If the Windows computers are setup to use a TCP/IPnetwork, each computer can send print jobs directly to theprinter over the network for printing. Furthermore, if aWindows Server 2003/ Windows XP/ Windows 2000/Windows NT computer on the network is setup as a printserver, higher printing efficiency can be obtained bysending the print jobs from each computer to the printserver and allowing the print server to manage the printjobs and sends the print jobs to the network printer.
