Why each option

A print server is specifically designed to manage printing jobs and route them to designated print devices, including multifunction devices. This role centralizes print management and provides spooling services.

AProxy

A proxy server acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources, typically for web browsing or network security, not for routing print jobs.

BRouter

A router forwards data packets between computer networks and is concerned with network layer addressing, not application-level routing of print jobs.

CPrint serverCorrect

A print server manages print queues and distributes print jobs to network-connected printers, including multifunction devices that offer printing capabilities. This server role is specifically designed for handling and routing print files.

DWeb server

A web server hosts websites and delivers web content over HTTP/HTTPS, which is unrelated to managing or routing print files.
