Print Deploy Get the right print driver and right print queue to the right person in the right location, automatically. With Print Deploy:
Print queues are dynamically deployed as mobile staff move between branches, stores, or campuses.
Native drivers are installed along with default settings (grayscale, duplex etc.) and capabilities (stapling, hole punching etc).
It doesn’t matter whether printing to a server or printing directly to a printer in a print-serverless environment.
Mac and Windows computers are supported (with Linux and Chromebooks to come shortly).
Support for computers that are not joined to a local domain (for example, G Suite or Microsoft Azure AD).
