Review on Netgear PS110 Print Server Parallel by Aaron Cruz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Very good, but there are still a few small problems.

I bought a new Canon i850 and wanted to use a print server with it. I originally bought an expensive Linksys PPSX1v2 print server, but its performance was poor, there was no bi-directional support, and no Linux support. I returned it and bought a Netgear PS110. What a big difference! That's great! Great performance and I can print with my Linux box too! I found two problems. 1) Does not support bi-directional Canon i850 functionality. 2) When I first got the PS110, DHCP was disabled. So nothing could be connected to it. I learned that to set the IP MANUALLY, you need to connect the print server directly to your NIC with a crossover cable, and then set the IP using the "IPSetup" tool.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Not reliable
