LRS and IGEL: Streamlining Printing in Thin Client Environments

LRS is an official IGEL Alliance Partner, delivering a seamless printing experience for organizations using IGEL-powered thin clients. With this collaboration, LRS offers the IGEL Session Printer Agent for VPSX (ISPA)—a solution that brings enterprise-class output management to IGEL desktop environments.

Printing Made Easy in IGEL Thin Client Networks

Many enterprises use thin client infrastructures to boost security, lower costs, and enhance manageability. However, these benefits can come with challenges, especially when it comes to printing. In IGEL environments, administrators struggle to dynamically associate users, terminals, and printers. This can cause user frustration, productivity losses, and increased IT support calls.

ISPA to the Rescue

What is ISPA?

The IGEL Session Printer Agent for VPSX (ISPA) enhances the IGEL desktop experience that enables intelligent, centralized control over printing. IT administrators have the ability to easily define and manage printer access across users and terminals, ensuring the right device is always available no matter where the user is—at their desk or remote.

With ISPA, IGEL desktop printing behaves more like traditional PC printing, which improves usability and reduces support overhead.
