facilities.
Choosing a topology --
If you don't know whether
to use a peer-to-peer or a
client/server topology,
you may want to start
with peer-to-peer
printing. It generally takes
a substantial amount of
printing traffic, or large
print jobs, to slow down
printing significantly. If
your print jobs start to
take noticeably longer to
complete, you may want
to try using multiple
printers, dividing your
network into
subnetworks, or switching
your office to client/server
printing (in that order).
