As above, i need a 2 or 3 way print server cheap as possible.
I have been checking prices and they are extortionate
Has any one bought one recently or know where to get a reasonably priced one?
Ta,

Roy.

I have an older (not too old) one at home.Never used it.
Cant remember the make, or config.Just something i've collected
along my travels.
I think it plugs into the parallel port.
Has an ethernet con.
Still boxed as far as i can recall.
If your interested, i can find it at the weekend.

D-Link do a print server with 3 parallel ports, we sell for £139.83 inc VAT.

Thanks Danger Mouse.

Definitely interested Foot_Tapper, wait to hear from you.

Is it normal/unusual for print servers to have USB connectors as well? I'm thinking low-end devices, not expensive corporate stuff.

wiltshire_boy

Good question fatman, Never seen them with USB, though it would make a lot of sense with nearly all new printers coming with USB these days.

Ok it's an Axis NPS 530/532, its about 6 years old.

The box is complete, with power supply.booklet and supplied software on floppy.

Have tried to test at work, but dont have an available standalone printer.(as yet).
But its not 2 or 3 way, just plugs into the par port on the printer and has one rj45 conn.
