from John from Knoxville, TN, clickfrom.buy.com

all multi-function printers will most likely not work with this print server or any other, but that is not any fault of the print server.

for reviewers complaining that their multifunction devices won't work - linksys' web site for this product does say from the start that these devices aren't supported.
from www.amazon.com
eventhough i have seen other reviews that state that this product will not work with multifunction printers i have found this not to be the case.
