Hello,<br />
I am setting up some users on a canon 6055 multifunction. I'm curious as to whether I should install it to the Windows 2003 server and share out or just install to each workstation and let the canon do the print server functions. It's a very advanced device and i'm sure it has everything it needs to be able to handle the 10 or less users that will be accessing it.<br />
My instinct is to just install to each workstation individually from the installation software. Is there any benefits one way or another?<br />
<br />
Thanks

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
