SunSoft Print Client Overview

The SunSoft Print Client software is a complete replacement for the Solaris^TM print software (LP), which requires per-client administration to access remote printers. The SunSoft Print Client software offers the following benefits:

• Centralized Printer Configuration - Uses a name service (NIS or NIS+) to store and retrieve printer configuration information

• Enhanced Local Printer Configuration - Allows users to easily manage local printer configuration information

• Better Performance - Sends print requests directly to the server, instead of being spooled locally

For more information about the SunSoft print client software, refer to the Solstice AdminSuite Printer Administration Guide.
