Best USB Print Servers for Three

but it is a great little print server...

i wanted to be able to put my printer on the home network so i could share it between a laptop and desktop computer.

the setup with windows xp is a little weird, but the installation guide talks you through it step by step.

i purchased this mainly because i wanted the other computers on our home network to be be able to print if my laptop(configured as the print server) was turned off, or i was away on business.

pros: supports 2 usb printers cons: tech support very thin.

print server was set up with three computers very quickly.

have only tried 1 printer so far, but it has parallel and usb ports, so i tried it both ways.

i've found very little if not any buffer on this device.

while i couldn't get this product working with my specific printer, i do not blame it, since it is the third brand print server i have tried with same printer.

i used this product in conjunction with our small office netwrok, and it works perfectly fine from every computer in the office.

so i went out and got this print server mainly b/c it used 802.11g and wpa-psk, the same as my home network.

i use this product to put a usb hp laserjet printer on our home network with a pc and a mac, and it's flawless on both platforms.

i had, for a few weeks, been contemplating getting a remote print server for one of our group printers, but my last (and unpleasant) experiences with such devices had me reluctant to do it.

my advise to add a new printer, choose "local printer attached to this computer" and uncheck the auto-detect option.

i have 4 computers networked to this print server and it works great.

i was very very sceptical about the product after reading the user reviews and with prior experience with linksys print servers.

after setup, the printer would work if the print server was connected to the router with an ethernet cable, but it would not connect to the router wirelessly.

setting up the linksys wps54g on my wireless network was so easy and it was even easier adding my other computers once the inital print server was setup.
