Managing a modern printing infrastructure can be a complex and time-consuming endeavor for any organization. As businesses look to streamline operations and enhance efficiency, many have turned to Microsoft Universal Print for its driverless printing capabilities. However, while Universal Print offers a solid foundation, it lacks certain advanced features and comprehensive printer fleet management. This is where our Celiveo 365 SaaS steps in, offering powerful enhancements that eliminate print servers and take your printing capabilities to the next level.
The Need to Eliminate Print Servers
Traditional print servers often present challenges such as hardware maintenance, frequent updates, and security vulnerabilities. By opting to eliminate print servers, organizations can significantly reduce their IT overhead and improve the overall reliability of their printing infrastructure. Driverless printing through Microsoft Universal Print addresses part of these issues by providing a cloud-based solution, but it doesn’t comprehensively replace the need for traditional servers on its own.

The Role of Driverless Printing
Driverless printing simplifies the printing process by removing the need for individual printer drivers. Microsoft Universal Print supports this feature, allowing users to print from any device without worrying about compatibility issues. However, while driverless printing offers convenience, it leaves room for additional requirements such as advanced print management and security features.
