Parallel printing and creating separate printer for each client printer!
Print2Desktop creates and uses a separate port for every attached printer, allowing the users to print documents simultaneously in parallel! The Print2Desktop simultaneous printing can make the printing more faster especially if the server has many remotely logged in user who uses Print2Desktop printers.
Add Printers to existing sessions without logging out and logging back in
Print2Desktop is able to add the selected printer(s) to existing RDP sessions without logging out from the session. The user only has to disconnect (close the RDP window) and reopen it to add the selected printer(s).
Double-sided (duplex) printing
Print2Desktop supports Double-sided (duplex) printing. This option could save big amounts of paper when printing large, multi-paged documents - it is also more environment-friendly and the decreased amount of pages are easier to handle during archiving processes or when dealing with limited storage space.
Audit Logging
The Print2Desktop Server includes an Audit Log feature, allowing administrators to keep in track with every printed document, measure printer usage and calculate printing costs.
Static Printer Naming
The Print2Desktop unique feature allows the client to attach a printer with a static printer name. No session ID is necessary after the printer name. This unique feature is only available from Black Ice Software with Print2Desktop.
MSI and Active Directory Installation
Print2Desktop comes with MSI installation for Active Directory for IT managers. The MSI installation simplifies Print2Desktop installations on large or enterprise installations. The MSI installer is compatible with Microsoft SMS/SCCM. To obtain Print2Desktop MSI installations, System Administrators need to contact sales@blackice.com or impactsupport@blackice.com.
Full access to Client Printer Options
Print2Desktop allows the User to have full access to his local printer driver settings via the Print2Desktop Client. By turning on Printing Preferences in the client, the user's local printer driver dialog will appear just prior to the print job being sent to the printer, allowing the user to change options such as printer trays and other printer options.
SSL / TLS Encryption
Supports SSL (128-bit) and TLS encryption per encryption of the Remote Desktop Client.
Fast printing
Print2Desktop is based on the industry leading Black Ice printer drivers and the elapsed time from pressing print from the remote client to the time the print job is delivered to the client printer. It is faster than any other product on the market.
