A system and method of connecting a computer to a peripheral of another computer. An example system includes a processor connected to a network and to the one and the other computers through the network. The processor executes web service software which establishes a discovery service for receiving a peripheral connection request from application software of the one computer and peripheral management software which receives information from the other computer through the web service software about the peripherals of the other computer. In addition, the peripheral management software logically associates the peripherals and the other computer with a peripheral station, receives the peripheral connection request from the application software, maps the one computer to a requested peripheral of the peripheral station, and sends information to the application software through the web service software to facilitate connection by the application software to the requested peripheral of the peripheral station through the other computer. |
