Printer Virtualization for Virtual Desktop infrastructures (VDI)
 Many businesses today focus on virtualized environments. The freedom virtualization achieves regarding hardware, operating system, and application creates great potential for savings and consolidation within a company.
One popular application scenario is the Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), in which complete desktop environments are run in virtual data center servers. The advantages are obvious: employees have the full functionality of a complete PC without threatening security and without limitations on applications.
Unfortunately, once users try to print in a virtualized environment, the newly won freedom quickly ends; as ever, applications are directly connected to the printer hardware by the associated printer driver. The operating system is preordained, as well, because 32-bit printer drivers cannot be used in 64-bt environments, and vice versa.
The .print Virtual Desktop Engine fixes that. Its DRIVER FREE PRINTING technology disbands the inflexible connection between application and printer driver and even makes it possible to run mixed 32- and 64-bit environments. Thanks to compression of up to 99%, the distance and/or connection between application and printer hardware is almost limitless. That means that print management can be completely virtualized regarding hardware, operating system, application, and physical location.
