Intelligent Printer Connectivity

Scalable solutions with reliable, proven network management options for businesses from large organizations to small offices - serving needs ranging from daily office printing to the most highly demanding business applications. 

Axis print servers connect to any printer* and provide one uniformed, easy-to-use interface regardless of printer brand.

Any printer*, any network, any time

External print servers are future proof as they do not depend on the brand of the connected printer.  Axis multi-port models connect up to three printers to one print server.

External print servers of one single brand in an environment with many different kinds of printers from many different manufacturers makes life a lot simpler for the administrator.

With AXIS ThinWizard (device management software), multiple Axis products can be viewed and managed in groups using a standard Web browser.

* Host-based printers such as GDI, CAPT and PPA are not supported.
