Product Review: Hewlett-Packard's
Web JetAdmin 3.0 (beta)
September 15, 1997
Printer configuration and job management via the Web have
been possible for some time through Hewlett-Packard's Web-based version
of its powerful JetAdmin software. However, it has always been the

Product Review: Novell's Distributed
Print Services (NDPS) (beta)
July 7, 1997
Just like Novell Directory Services (NDS) dramatically
altered the landscape of NetWare security, Novell Distributed Print
Services (NDPS) promises to have the same impact on network printing.
The technology is both comprehensive and complicated, making early
deployment efforts justifiable only to those sites with large initial
paybacks. However, once vendors and users jump on the bandwagon,
the technology will become sufficiently pervasive and deliver full
benefits. |
