There are two methods of network printing.
• Printing directly from a computer
• Printing through a shared computer (server)
You may need to consult with your network administrator which to select.
■ Printing directly from a computer
The computer's
 print data is transferred directly to the printer. This method is recommended 
for a small network and has the advantage of faster printing with less network traffic.
■ Printing through the shared computer (server)
The print data is transferred to the print server (the shared computer), then it is transferred 
from the print server to the printer. This method is recommended for larger networks because 
it lets the print server manage the data flow.
