HP Jet Direct Print Servers
The HP range of print servers allows network printing without loading individual PCs with the task of print sharing. The Jet Direct 500X is ideal for practices that require external print servers to connect up to three printers to their networks in one location. The Jet Direct 170X allows multiple users to share a single printer connected to the print server, and is ideal for the smaller office environment, where one printer in the back office may be shared by several staff.
