Hooked this up to my laser printer and could not get it to work. Was on the network. Was able to configure it fine. But printed documents just disappeared. I’ll be returning mine.

Perhaps because I’m working with an older HP laser printer (4000T), this product required a number of tech support calls to make it work. And when I updated the firmware on my Linksys wireless router, I had to make several calls once again to tech support.
But tech support was always available without much wait. And although it took call-backs from people at the supervisor level, eventually they solved the problem and the device has been working flawlessly ever since.

It took me a little bit to get it setup with Windows 7 but I have not had any problem since. It is a good product that just works. Was super easy to add as a printer on my Netbook.

The print server was shipped promptly by Amazon.
This print server was relatively easy to install and has, so far, operated flawlessly. We use it to print from our wireless laptops to an old but excellent HP laser printer (HP Laserjet 4 Plus….which uses a parallel port interface, not a
USB port interface)
It should be noted that this IS NOT a wireless print server. It must be connected with a RJ45 network cable to the router.

Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) couldn’t see the 5MP via AppleTalk, and the HP print servers were discontinued long ago. Read positive reviews of this unit and figured it was worth a shot. Installation using the supplied CD from Windows XP (running in VM Ware Fusion) was a piece of cake, took about 5 minutes. About a minute at each computer in the network switching the default printer to the print server. The native printer drivers on the various Macs in my network (OS 9, 10.4.11, 10.5, and 10.6.2) recognized the 5MP and provided access to all the functionality built into it.
