Print server
A print server is a device or software that manages and controls printing tasks for multiple computers within a network. Instead of each computer connecting directly to a printer, they send print jobs to the server, which queues, prioritizes, and sends them to the printer. This central management allows for better resource sharing, easier printer maintenance, and streamlined printing processes. Essentially, it acts as an intermediary that coordinates all printing activities, ensuring efficient and organized printing for users across the network.
