Hi Steve, I'm being very lazy here, but.. a) does ThinPrint require an additional client sw? b) if money was no object, what would you recommend as the best thin client printing solution... and don't say a global gigabit fibre network for all users. c) would you recommend Thinprint for large corporates? -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Steve Greenberg Sent: 23 April 2004 17:20 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Thin Print vs UPD The Citrix UPD is not a driverless solution. UPD is an actual print = driver that tends to be compatible with a lot of printers and can be used when = the native driver is either not available or is problematic. With UPD, the = print job is still processed on the server with a print driver and then transferred to the client. This means that the transfer to the client is = the fully expanded print output and can be quite large. A Driverless printing solution is able to re-direct the raw print = command stream to the client device. At the client device the print driver is = called and used to process and expand the print output. As a result, the amount = of data transferred to the client is far less. In addition, the print = driver does not need to reside on the server and many issues are thereby = bypassed which often occur on Citrix servers with print drivers.

So what are the advantages of Thin Print compared to Citrix = Universal Printer driver. Is UPD good enough for "driverless" printing ? Any = issues with UPD in large environments ? =20 With regards, Ruben Spruijt ******************************************************** This week's sponsor - Neoware Thin Clients Neoware makes computing open, secure, reliable,=20 affordable, manageable and obsolete-free.=20 Starting at $199!=20 http://www.neoware.com=20 ********************************************************** Useful Thin Client Computing Links are available at: http://thin.net/links.cfm *********************************************************** For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or=20 set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link: http://thin.net/citrixlist.cfm ******************************************************** This week's sponsor - Neoware Thin Clients Neoware makes computing open, secure, reliable, affordable, manageable and obsolete-free.
