you can use Windows or a non Windows operation system. The
only requirement is that the ThinPrint Client to be installed supports the Connection
Service; the following are appropriate:
• ThinPrint Client Windows
• ThinPrint Client Service Windows
• ThinPrint Client Linux
• ThinPrint Client Mac
• All print server devices and appliances with embedded ThinPrint Client
If you want to use Driver Free Printing for sending print data from the central print
server to the workstations, you must use a Windows machine for all participating
computers – application servers, central print servers, workstations. If only the appli-
cation servers and the central print server run Windows as operating system, you can
then use V-Layer (see Page 6
).
The following shows an example of how a Windows computer can be configured
with the ThinPrint Client Service Windows as local print server. For information on
Linux or refer to the ThinPrint Client Linux or ThinPrint Client Mac manual; for print
server devices and appliances see the SEH TPG120 as a ThinPrint Client Gateway
and SEH ISD400 as a ThinPrint Client Gateway documentation (Page 24
).
