Introduction
With
the NETGEAR PS101 Mini Print Server, easy
and convenient printer access is yours! This
versatile mini print server gives home and
office networks built-in efficiency because
it allows multiple users to share a printer
from anywhere on the network without sharing
your PC. With this kind of flexibility, you
can place your printer anywhere that's handy.
The speedy Mini Print Server boasts a 10 Mbps
Ethernet connection and supports multiple
print jobs simultaneously. It features an
easy, Web-based remote management tool and
works with most laser and inkjet printers
equipped with a parallel port. Since no parallel
printer cable is needed, it saves you money,
too.

Flexible
Lets you share a printer on a network without
having to leave your PC on. You can locate
that printer right where you want it
close at hand or out of the way. It's compatible
with most parallel port printers (including
bi-directional printers) from HP, Canon, Epson,
Lexmark, and others.
Time-Saving
Removes the performance bottleneck you'd have
with a dedicated, always-on PC acting as the
print server. It supports multiple print jobs
simultaneously, gives you a fast, 10 Mbps
Ethernet connection, and is equipped with
an on-board memory buffer for quicker printout
delivery.
Easy
to Use
NETGEAR Print Server software makes it simple
to install on all popular versions of Microsoft
Windows. You can manage the print server remotely
with an easy, Web browser interface. Then
you can share a printer on your LAN without
sharing your computer.
Cost
Effective
Saves you the cost of an expensive parallel
printer cable the Mini Print Server
doesn't need one. It's also upgradable for
future enhancements and protects your investment
with a 3-year limited warranty.
