Due to good reviews I bought the first print servers LogiLink year ago about 1 and my color laser thus changed from USB to Ethernet. A bit annoying is that the installation of the driver under Windows only is possible. Who calls his own a different operating system, has not got a chance to take the unit into operation. After setting up the software (without any problems under XP and Vista), the IP address of the device are festgelgt, respectively, of the proposal of the software can be adopted. That was about it. Now it is a simple matter to address the printer as a network printer with any operating system. On openSUSE 11.1 it took me 5 minutes to let the test page in the output tray was. Who needs only one print server for which this device is just right. Easy to install and totally unobtrusive in operation. Normally I would have clearly awarded five stars. If, yes if it had not come to a small problem. Given the positive experiences I have gained about 3 weeks ago a second print server to also incorporate my old SW laser into the network. Because the software an integration of an additional device does not allow, though a configuration module is present (but which requires you to enter a non-existent administrators password, can be created which neither during installation, appears still in the operating instructions), I uninstalled the software and new uploaded. The additional print server is also found, the IP address can also be applied only to print no longer works. A print job is sent simultaneously to both printers, which first indicate that they are working to make it stop simply. Then comes an error window that the printing has been canceled. Worse, under Linux, although appear both printers, but can not be responsive. After removing the new device from the network color laser ran my hesitation again.
Conclusion: A very good print server for people who want to make only one device to the network. Here is a very strong buy recommendation. Anyone who wants to connect multiple devices, but should urgently look for alternatives, and, already pay attention to network capability with the printer purchase.
