NETWORK PRINTING Hardware connections Print servers can be internal or external devices. Which one you choose depends on your printer. Internal print servers -These are special-purpose cards or modules that plug into the built-in input/output slot in the back of some printers. The slot provides the data and power connections for the print server, and the network cable plugs into the network connector on the face of the print server. Internal print servers come in a variety of configurations to match the style of your printer slot and the type of network connection you need. External print servers -External print servers are for printers that don't have a built-in slot. The print server is a small module that sits next to the printer (or mounts on the printer using a clip) and connects to the printer's USB or parallel port using a standard printer cable. A network cable plugs into the network connector on the print server, and a power cord connects to a wall outlet to provide the print server's power. (We haven't shown the power cord in the illustration, just to keep the drawing simpler.) External print servers come in several different configurations to match the printer's data port (USB or parallel) and the type of network connection you need.

NETWORK PRINTING
Hardware
connections
Print servers can be internal or
external devices. Which one you
choose depends on your printer.
Internal print servers --
These are special-purpose cards
or modules that plug into the
built-in input/output slot in the
back of some printers. The slot
provides the data and power
connections for the print server,
and the network cable plugs into
the network connector on the
face of the print server.
Internal print servers come in a
variety of configurations to
match the style of your printer
slot and the type of network
connection you need.
External print servers --
External print servers are for
printers that don't have a built-in
slot. The print server is a small
module that sits next to the
printer (or mounts on the printer
using a clip) and connects to the
printer's USB or parallel port
using a standard printer cable. A
network cable plugs into the
network connector on the print
server, and a power cord
connects to a wall outlet to
provide the print server's power.
(We haven't shown the power
cord in the illustration, just to
keep the drawing simpler.)
External print servers come in
several different configurations
to match the printer's data port
(USB or parallel) and the type of
network connection you need.
