Conclusion: Good box, obscure configuration.
Review: Just bought this used and I thought I would post how to get it to work.
1. If you're using XP, you must have IPX protocol enabled. Then use the iogear print monitor application to configure IP.
2. If you're using OSX, you must use appletalk to connect to this print server. Alternatively you can use IP (lpr) if you configure the GPSU01's IP configuration via a windows box first.
If you want a print server that just works, you should look for something else. Evaluation:
Conclusion: Deceptive product and business!
Review: Beware! This print server does not work for all-in one printers and they do not disclose this anywhere on the manual nor their website. Be also aware of 15% restocking fee plus shipping charge that ANT charges, information which is not disclosed anywhere on their webstie!!! There is no way of talking to a live person, only via emails which they give themselves one business day to reply. Took me 4 days to find out about the return info and to get the RMA number. I would NEVER shop at Atlanta Network Techonologis, Inc. again. Evaluation:
Conclusion: Nice price if it only worked
Review: Well, this works for two out of the five PCs now...not very useful. When the AC outlet supplying the power to the server went out, the functionality never came back after the power came back on. The PS Admin software can't see the print server, even though I know the connection is there because another PC on the network can still print on it. Too frustrating. The HP server with HP JetAdmin costs more, but life is too short to deal with this piece of #@#$%. Evaluation:
Conclusion: It's Great
Review: I have just purchased and installed this print server and I am more than satisifed. I followed the instructions which were complete and easy to understand and was up and running in less that 1/2 hour. There was no trouble with the network recognizing the server and it works flawlessly with my HP 1300 mutifunction printer. Great buy!! Would highly recommend to all. Evaluation:
Conclusion: Lame Duck!
Review: I have had nothing but problems with this product. I bought it a year ago and tried throughout the year to get it going. I tried emailing technical service, but still have not heard a response from them. My wife and I just moved into our new home and I was setting up our home office. I decided to try this product one more time. Didn't work. Could not recognize the IP address. I went online to Amazon and found Chris and Online Techie's information very helpful. One more try for the gipper. It worked! So for one day, I have a print server. Let's see if it continues to work.
