Print Server

A computer or device that manages print jobs and printer queues across a network.

Detailed Explanation

A print server centralizes print management, allowing multiple users to share printers efficiently. It manages print queues, handles authentication, enforces policies, and provides monitoring and reporting. Print servers can be dedicated hardware, software running on a server, or functionality built into copiers. They simplify driver distribution, enable pull printing, track usage, and improve security by controlling access to printing resources.
