The new way of printing
■
Windows XP Professional provides users with Terminal
Services as the so-called remote desktop connection.
The protocol in use, RDP , is actually meant for mobile
access to home Window PCs on the one hand and
remote maintenance on the other.
With the compilation of hundreds of Windows XP
PCs as Blades in a server rack, users can use the same
functions that they know from conventional terminal
servers. Moreover, performance intensive applications
on Blade PCs do not influence other sessions.
The only problem left to resolve is printing. Thin-
Print .print remedies that – first, by avoiding band-
width blockages during printing, and secondly, by
compressing print data. Furthermore, the use of cen-
tral and local print servers poses no problem, because
print data can be sent by either RDP or TCP/IP – even
if the clients or local print servers are in masked net-
works.

    CCI printing challenges Support of ThinPrint’s Driver Free Printing The ThinPrint .print architecture allows for driver free printing in that the Blade PC need not have a printer-specific driver loaded but needs only a ThinPrint Output Gate- way Printer attached to a ThinPrint Port installed. The printer-specific driver is loaded only on the local client where a printer is connected to the desktop computer.
