Creating and Configuring a Printer Pool
Scenario
Scenario
Your manager has asked you to create a new shared printer for your branch
office. However, instead of creating the shared printer on the local server in the
branch office, he has asked you to create the shared printer in the head office
and use Branch Office Direct Printing. This allows people in the head office to
manage the printer, but prevents print jobs from traversing WAN links.
