Hi

I have not noticed any performance hit going pure IP,  We use  Axis Print servers which are 10/100 pocket print servers
(http://www.axis.com/products/axis_5400p/index.htm). The axis print servers support ALL Plateforms (see data sheet  -
http://www.axis.com/documentation/datasheet/5400p_5600p/datasheet.pdf) So in a 10/100 based network we don't really see
straight IP printing an issue on eCS workstations. All other wkstns (refering to windoz print via  NDPS).

Also with eCS it does a great job of multitasking anyways and so performance in my case does seem to be there. Also one can
tweak the spooler if necesary but I have not had to do that to my existing wkstns yet.

The benefit of not relying on a queue is if the server is down I can still print to the printer.
