Are locally connected desktop printers (peer printers) supported?
Yes. PaperCut was specifically designed to allow organizations to have any number of systems hosting printers. Where possible we recommend network printers centralized on print servers as this simplifies management. All that is required to track local printing (e.g. a USB printer) is to install the light-weight print monitoring service on the workstation (about 350k). To do this run the installer and select the “Secondary print server” option when prompted. More information here. This is included as standard with the license. There is no extra cost.
