Ask Our Experts: The Perfect Printer Server for MFPs
Most USB print servers don't support MFPs, so be sure to double-check with the manufacturer.
Robert Strohmeyer, PC World
I have an HP PSC-1310 all-in-one, a Samsung CLP-300 color laser printer, and XP and Vista PCs. What type of USB print server should I get that also supports USB storage and scanning?
-- Robert Costabile, Hamden, ConnecticutSenior Editor Robert Strohmeyer responds: Most wireless USB print servers don't support USB products such as scanners. For your MFP, you'll need a wireless print server that specifically supports printing and scanning. Your color laser printer should work with any wireless USB print server that supports USB 2.0. Two options are the Linksys Wireless-G Print Server WPS54G (which supports MFPs) and the Netgear SGPS606 Wireless Print Server. With any network print server, double-check device compatibility with the manufacturer before you buy.
