Mini Computer #
This affordable Mini PC comes with Windows 11 and has been tested with the PrintNode client and Printus installed on the store and all worked fine. Since it’s meant to only be used to facilitate the printing, there’s no need to get a more powerful machine. Be sure to enable the Page Length Fix option in Printus Tools settings.

Once you’ve setup this Mini PC, there’s no need to leave it connected to a display monitor. It can be kept turned on at all times and should be treated as a small server. You can administer it using a service like Chrome Remote Desktop.
