Requirements for Spectrum Remote Print Client Computers

Loftware Spectrum® 5.0 supports remote printing, the act of printing a label to a device that would not normally be accessible to Spectrum by using your LAN or by using a direct connection to Spectrum. For example, printing using a device that is physically connected to a computer outside of your WAN. The Spectrum Remote Print solution includes a Loftware Print Agent that is installed on a remote computer. As a best practice, it is recommended that you deploy a single remote computer per location or logical grouping of printer devices.
