i planning to add new print service, but i don't know add a new role ( print server ) or just shared printer(smb) will better?

i planning shared to windows and Mac

  • it depends on your own network. usually a print server keeps the driver and the client doesn't need them or if they will be delivered on demand. A shared printer csn be used from anyone but needs a direct installation on any device mostly with administrator rights. Moreover over, share a printer is a bad choice imho, as it does not allow to print while unavailable, but with the print role and print directly it might be possible – djdomi Apr 12 '23 at 05:22
