What is Website Hosting?

When a hosting provider allocates space on a web server for a website to store its files, they are hosting a website. Web hosting makes the files that comprise a website (code, images, etc.) available for viewing online. Every website you’ve ever visited is hosted on a server.

Our UK web hosting plans offer fast, reliable and secure hosting for your websites. All of our web hosting packages promise high performance and super fast web hosting with a 99.9% uptime. With our hosting, your site will always be fast, reliable and secure.

A Complete Desktop Solution

Diamond Cloud Solutions provide a complete desktop for your online working environment. If you’re familiar with a Windows desktop, start menu and other common features, you’ll have no problem navigating Diamond Cloud Solutions.

Rather than focusing on features, consider how Diamond Online may help you in your working practices:

Net2Printer

Printing from your Diamond Discovery Hosted Desktop is only possible using the Net2Printer application, which must be installed and running on your PC or laptop before you connect to your desktop. Printing is the most technically challenging aspect of a remote desktop environment and is made possible by the use of remote printer driver software. Our chosen software provider is Net2Printer and the software must be installed on your PC or laptop before you can print from our platform. The installation and configuration is simple and the software will sit silently in the background on your PC or laptop.

If Net2Printer is already installed

If Net2Printer is already installed on your PC or laptop and you are installing an update, before you install the update from this web page you must first uninstall the existing installation on your PC or laptop. The full update process would be as follows:

  • Uninstall the already-installed version of Net2Printer, for example:
    • from the Control Panel on your PC or laptop, select Add or Remove Programs (Windows XP) or Programs and Features (Windows Vista, 7)
    • locate “Net2Printer RDP Client n.nn.n” in the list of programs, where n.nn.n is the version of the software that is currently installed, e.g. 1.16.1
    • right click on this item and select “Uninstall”
  • When the uninstallation is complete, restart your PC or laptop
  • Install the latest version of Net2Printer as explained below
