Review on TRENDnet Wireless N Print πŸ–¨οΈ Server TEW-MFP1: Enhance Your Printing Efficiency by Jeff Kersey

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The device is great! instructions are missing. Still recommended

We have 3 computers and two printers (HP 8600 HP 6122 USB Wireless) in the house and it's really nice to be able to access them all from anywhere. The response is as quick as a direct connection. The installation was more difficult than it should have been as I kept getting the message that the installation was incomplete and I had to reinstall it. After installing/uninstalling/reinstalling everything turned out to have worked the first time if the install and reboot instructions before opening the management utility had said what happened when I rebooted after installing on my second PC. Anyway, after the installation, the Control utility found my printer and put it in "Auto connect" mode with one click, which (it's also not entirely clear that when connected manually, other printers in the system don't care until you do 'don't disconnect manually) However, with a few tweaks to the 'quick install guide' this seems like the perfect answer to printer sharing.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Long delivery time
