10/100Mbps Ethernet to USB 2.0 Network Print Server - Windows 10 - LPR - LAN USB Print Server Adapter (PM1115U2)

I have a simple single function low cost printer. I don't need an All-in-one function printer and I don't need to print from a smart phone or tablet. I use a Dell laptop running Windows 7 with WIFI via a N300 Netgear WIFI router. I also have a single function HP Deskjet 1000 printer without any WIFI. I don't print much but I wanted a way to print without physically attaching my printer to my laptop. This product solved that problem. Basically you plug the print server into your router and plug your printer into the print server usb port. When you load the software on the laptop you are installing a second HP driver for your printer. Your original HP Deskjet driver remains and is an option if you decide want to go back to printing through your local usb port on your laptop. The new driver formats the print job to be sent over the network either via the laptop ethernet interface or via WIFI. It works very well. All I need to do is turn my printer on and I can print from my laptop while working in another room. The only complaint is that the StarTech Quick Start guide Software Installation instructions are a bit lacking (at least for Windows 7). Connect your laptop to your router. The basic install goes as follows: 1. Insert the CD. AutoPlay opens and shows a "Run Setup.exe" option (not Networking Printer Wizard). 2. You click the Setup option and it runs a StarTech "Networking Printer Wizard" that puts a "Launch Network Printer Wizard" icon (shortcut) on your desktop. 3. You click on that Launch ... icon and it opens the Windows "Network Printer Wizard". In that window you'll see your shared network printer listed. In my case it was HP Deskjet 1000 J110 series-P05d065f6a. That is the new print driver you are installing. Highlight it and complete the steps. 4. When you print, your HP dialog box will show printer selection options (both the original and network printer). You'll have to select the network printer each time or you can make it your default printer. Go to Ctl Panel-->Hardware&Sound-->View devices&printers: Right clk the network printer and select Default. StarTech.com should be able to tell you if your particular printer is supported.

Rating: -50 stars. Instead of loading useful drivers, the CD ... yeah, a CD - I know ... some kind of malware squeaked in there and ruined my system. After rebuilding from scratch I was able to recover, but I didn't buy this just to refresh my system. I'm now several days after ripping out this piece of dung and I'm still having issues with my system. Whatever the problem is is unclear, but the software they provided has implanted a deeply rooted issue somewhere in the bowels of my system.

I tested this print server with my DYMO LabelWriter 450 Turbo and Twin Turbo, and it works flawlessly! But, the setup wasn't completely plug-and-play. The device didn't automatically recognize the printer or its drivers, so I had to install the DYMO driver package manually. To get it working, I selected custom settings, set the queue name to LPR1, and that was it—worked just like connected via USB. This is a great way to use the Dymo 450 series on a server without having to upgrade to the 550 series.

I did have connectivity issues to start and after trying on a secondary router that I use for testing purposes, it was fine--- found my problem on my network and the unit was discovered immediately...not the fault of the unit, was a problem with my network. I ended up having to return it as no matter what I did on two systems, my printer (an HP printer on the list) would begin to print out page after page of gibberish---- tried to figure out what was going on and even was in contact with tech support... although they were very nice and overall helpful, my problem still persisted. In the end I wish it did work, but on the other hand it is my last printer that I own that does not have baked in wireless/ wired network connections. So with that, I am going to replace the printer when the toner runs out and move onto something new. Not necessarily bad, but it does in a matter of words suck to have to give up an overall solid printer. The main reason that I decided to do this was that I print from three different systems and with the printer tied to one system, print speeds are slow. On the system that the printer is connected via USB.... all works normal, but for anyone else... it is painfully slow.... about 2-3ppm from about 40ppm that it does do on the connected system. Again, I wish it worked for me, but in the end a new printer will be on order.

I consider myself pretty tech-savvy, but this print server still took me about an hour of troubleshooting before I gave up and reached out for help. The setup isn’t exactly beginner-friendly — but the customer support absolutely makes up for it. I went to the manufacturer’s website on Thanksgiving (of all days!) and was surprised to find live chat available. I clicked, hoping someone might actually be there, and sure enough a support rep answered immediately. He helped fix the settings, and everything is working perfectly now. So even if you’re not technically inclined, this print server is a great way to share your printer over the network — and you can count on the manufacturer’s tech support to back you up all the way.

So got this when the ethernet port on my laser printer conked-out. Rather than replace the printer, I add this. So I use this with a Mac, which doesn't require any software, like the included CD. I can't speak about Windows. So this print server does work, but its VERY VERY slow. Were talking maybe 2 minutes to print a 2 page B&W page. At first I didn't think its working, but it's just VERY slow. It's also quite strange that they include an ethernet cable but NOT a USB cable.

De titel zegt genoeg, meer woorden moeten hier niet aan vuil gemaakt worden

Difficult to use and guides arent accurate.

funciona muy bien se pueden hacer cosas avanzadas con la aplicación de actualización de firmware
