Mapping in sessions
•
Map printer in NX sessions:
Makes the printer available in NX sessions.
•
Map printer in ICA sessions:
Makes the printer available in ICA sessions.
•
Map printer in RDP sessions:
Makes the printer available in RDP sessions.
The remaining parameters are used to select the printer driver in ICA and RDP sessions on
Windows
servers.
Give the name of the driver under
Windows
which is to be used.
If it does not feature in the list, it can be specified under
Use user-defined windows driver name
.
When printing in ICA and RDP sessions, the print data are normally prepared for the printer model by the
Windows
printer driver and are passed unchanged from the thin client to the printer.
An exception is encountered when using the
Windows
driver in ICA sessions: Manufacturer:
Generic
, model:
Generic
PostScript. In this case, the print data are prepared on the thin client
with the help of the printer driver defined above under
Printers
for the printer model. This
requires thin client resources depending on the size of the print job.
IPP printer sharing
The IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) offers the following configuration options:
•
Network or host for sharing local printers:
Allows printing on the local device from either the local or
the global network.
•
Enable IPP printer browsing:
Allows you to search for shared printers in the local or global network and
show your shared printers within the network. A shared printer is visible within the network but it may
not be possible to print from the network if you do not have the necessary authorization.
