your workstation or file server to its connected printers, delivering print jobs
to high-performance printers much faster than a file server or a PC acting as a
print server can.

Service Features
This 1-Port USB Print Server can improve network-printing services of your
network in three ways:
♦It picks up the workload of managing print file traffic to its connected
printers. This provides workload relief to your file servers, and allows
the file servers' full capacity to be used for file access or other direct
services to network users. On peer-to-peer networks, workstations can
print directly to this print server without increasing the load of another
workstation or server.
♦This print server’s USB interface cantransmit to a high-speed laser printer
with USB port much faster than a PC's parallel port. A high-speed laser
printer can be driven at its full capacity.
♦Because this 1-Port USB Print Server is very portable (pocket-sized) and
inexpensive compared to a PC-based print server, and because it connects
-6-
to your file servers through the network, the printer can be stationed at the
location of maximum convenience to users.
This 1-Port USB Print Server offers extraordinary flexibility, operating with all
major network operating systems and protocols:
♦TCP/IP
UNIX lpr/lpd (HP-UX, SunOS, Solaris, SCO, UnixWare, IBM AIX)
Windows NT/2000/XP, Windows 95/98/Me
NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR remote printing
♦NetBEUI
Windows NT/2000/XP, Windows 95/98/Me, Windows for Workgroups,
Microsoft LAN Manager, IBM LAN Server
♦AppleTalk
MacOS EtherTalk
Your 1-Port USB Print Server’spackage includes PS Admin,a Windows-
based setup and administration program, making configuration and
management of your print servers quickly and easily in a Windows
environment. This print server also has a Telnet interface for management
communications. If Windows is not available on the station you choose for
print server administration, then all configuration and management commands
may be issued to this print server, and all console messages and management
report information will be returned, via Telnet.
