Connecting to a Network
External Print Server
A stand alone device that acts as a server on the network specifically for receiving print jobs
and passing them to the printer. Client computers connect to the print server over a network.
Internal Print Server
Similar to an external print server, except the print server is integrated into the printer. This
removes the need for a separate power supply and separate device drivers. This is the simplest
way to network a printer.
