paperweight. the best of print servers

It was advertised as a decent little print server for the money. but I can't for the life of me get it to work with a standard laser printer. The software is buggy (lots of error codes) and if you can force it to find a print server, it can't find attached printers. Let me add that the instructions state that the printer AND the print server must be HARD CONNECTED to the router over the LAN during installation. the point is not advertised. Pretty difficult when you have a large, heavy printer…

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Doesn't go with everything

Does not work with multifunction devices!

Hello, I bought this product to use with HP OfficeJet G95. The product does not support such printers, but this fact is nowhere to be read by the consumer. Also, the item was defective. It wouldn't work with every printer right out of the box. Judging by other reviews, many of them are defective. Customer support for this product was also lousy, and the written documentation was confusing and incomplete for anyone but networkers. I'm a system administrator and the installation was a real…

Pros
  • Positive only
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Suggest A Guide - Read These Reviews Instead

I bought the Linksys WPS11v3 through Revain after reading the reviews here. Warning - the reviewers are right! The device itself is simple enough, but the documentation that comes with it is pretty much useless unless you happen to be one of the lucky few who have a setup exactly like the person who wrote the manual. Keys to success I learned from these daredevils: - Print the status of the print server by holding down the reset button. - From there, get the IP address of your print server and…

Pros
  • Nice build
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Poor documentation, buggy software and firmware

Suddenly I needed a wireless print server. After a great experience with Linksys products in the past, they got my purchase. As you read, please note that I am a former network administrator and have installed many genuine (HP, Lexmark, etc.) network print servers in the past. It took me a little over three hours to finally get it working. Most Linksys products come with good to excellent documentation and are easy to set up - even if you need to change settings or use a non-Linksys network…

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • There are cons
