Pros: Worked right out of the box. Had it set up to print from Windows, Linux and Mac in 20 minutes. Cons: Too early to tell. from Newegg.com Two-port print servers are the best and this product is great! The D-Link DP-300U was very easy to set up. Every house should have a two port print server: one printer for an ink jet printer, one for a laser printer. from Amazon.com The dp-300u is a great printer server. I bought it and conected it all up to the printers and my wireless hub [the di-624 hub] witch works great powered it up installed the printers on all the dirrernt pc's and away it went. from Tigerdirect.com Pros: Easy setup- no disk required, uses DHCP, installs as 'generic network printer' under XP. Cons: Needs constant resetting with heavy usage. from Newegg.com Pros: Easy setup- no disk required, uses DHCP, installs as 'generic network printer' under XP. Cons: Needs constant resetting with heavy usage. from Newegg.com Performance is outstanding! When the Laser Jet 5 was connected to an old, busy desktop, print jobs took5-15 minutes to reach the printer, particularly .pdf jobs. The D-Link DP-300U shoots 'em through like grass through a goose! Note carefully: Unless you use TCP/IP print servers on Windows on a regular basis, READ THE MANUAL!!!! from Buy.com I bought the DP 300U for use with a Samsung printer connected via parallel port. Worked beautifully the first time. from Buy.com As you read this review, take into consideration that I have only had this a couple of days. I had initial difficulty adding this device to the home network, which uses a NetGear router/wireless access point. Both the NetGear, and the LinkSys i had before, start assigning IP addresses at the 192.168.1.* range. from Amazon.com Pros: Unknown - Unable to get it working after more than two hours of interacting with D-Link tech support. Cons: Setup is non-intuitive and cumbersome. from Newegg.com Comments: I purchased this unit to replace an old Linksys EFSP42 print server which surprisingly would not even connect to my new Linksys BEFSX41 router. I could not even get a link light, worked fine with my old Netgear RT314. from Newegg.com
