We are using the Wyse S90 with has XPe or the Embedded Windows XP. HP 1000
and 1015's did not work. Wyse said there was a problem with
the 1000 series HP printers and Wyse. Were able to get the 1018 to work.
Interestingly enough we were unable to get the 2015 to work. Wyse was
unable to provide a work around other than sending in the printer for them
to test. Be careful which printers you choose for local printers. The
certified peripheral's
(printer list) is very short. Not sure about other manufactures.

Subject: [THIN] Direct Thin Client Printing
We are having to host a significant amount of single-user sites. Previously,
we bought Thin Clients with parallel ports and put HP1015s on them. HP
don?t seem to do low-cost parallel printers anymore. We don?t have control
over the networking, so can?t use direct IP printing. We are hoping to use
CE rather than XPe or linux devices. I?m therefore looking for
recommendations for printing on USB for thin clients.
· Cost is a big factor ? we wouldn?t want to go much above
£100/$180-odd.
· Mono laser is fine
· Would prefer no drivers to go on servers
In a completely ideal world we?d also like to be able to offer Color inkjet
and/or a multifunction ? only using the printer function of the
multi-function device with the Thin Client, obviously.
Any experience, good or bad, welcome.
Nick
