Printer mapping method and system based on desktop virtualization technology

Abstract

The invention provides a printer mapping method and system based on a desktop virtualization technology. The system comprises a virtual desktop server, a virtual machine and terminal equipment which establishes data connection with the virtual machine, wherein the terminal equipment comprises a thin client; a VRS server module and a printer driving module are arranged on the thin client; a VRS client module is arranged on the virtual machine, and is used for transmitting printing command information of the virtual machine to the VRS server module; and the VRS server module is used for finishing printing operation according to the printing command information transmitted by a virtual machine end. Through adoption of the printer mapping method and system based on the desktop virtualization technology provided by the invention, compatibility with all printer equipment in a desktop-as-a-service environment can be realized; the electrical characteristics of the printer equipment are shielded; and the mapping stability of the printer equipment under a desktop as a service is enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of printer redirection, in particular to a printer mapping method and system based on desktop virtualization technology. Background technique [0002] Server virtualization, desktop virtualization and application virtualization are the three major virtualization technologies in computer virtualization. It is also an important technology for future cloud computing. At present, in various industries around the world, the promotion of virtualization technology has begun, and it is gradually becoming popular in the IT industry. At present, many enterprises around the world have been virtualized, and gradually fully virtualized, developing towards the direction of cloud computing. [0003] Desktop virtualization is to perform server virtualization on servers in the data center, generate a large number of independent desktop operating systems (virtual machines or virtual desktops), and send them to terminal devi...

Problems solved by technology

It separates the user's desktop from the terminal device, freeing the desktop from the constraints of the hardware. However, due to the extensive use of peripherals, the rapid development of desktop virtualization is restricted. Therefore, solving the peripheral problem of desktop virtualization has become a top priority.

[0004] Desktop cloud (DAAS) provides a variety of desktop as a service for enterprises and individual users, and peripheral devices are indispensable for desktops, such as USB storage devices, printer devices, and U-key devices are indispensable for personal work For the printer device, it is the most commonly used device in the desktop cloud. The traditional intra-protocol mapping can only solve the simple mapping problem of peripheral devices. In the basic network, there is data transmission, and the data transmission volume is relatively large. In the case of , the entire network situation becomes worse, resulting in unstable printer device mapping
