ThinPrint Releases RDP Engine 7.0

Wednesday, 15 November 2006 by Michel Roth

ThinPrint announces that the new RDP Engine 7.0, a print management solution specifically for Microsoft Terminal Services, is now available. In addition to Windows PCs and thin clients with embedded XP, the new version now also supports all other thin clients. That means that companies with thin client networks can also use the print data compression and bandwidth control in the ThinPrint solution. The RDP Engine 7.0 can be used both for Microsoft terminal servers and for accessing standalone Windows XP computers across a Remote Desktop Connection. The driver free printing technology combined with 64-bit support makes printer driver problems in this environment a permanent thing of the past.

Although users of the RDP Engine products can enjoy the main advantages of the .print technology, such as automatic support of any printer without requiring the associated printer driver (driver free printing ), faster print speeds, and up to 99% less data volume, the software runs with absolutely no administration whatsoever. For example, the RDP Engine automatically detects whether a thin client or a PC is connected and makes the necessary adjustments. If a PC is connected, automatic support of additional print features, such as duplex and paper source including printer specific paper tray descriptions, are also available. Even without a printer, mobile users can print documents to a file that can later be printed from any convenient printer.

Support for thin clients requires the relevant ThinPrint .print Client. This is available for more than 80% of all thin clients, but must be installed on the hardware in the latest version incl. RDP support. Most WYSE devices are furnished with the current .print Client at manufacture.
