54 Mbps Wireless Print Server
with 4-port switch
Wireless printing for four or more users!
Would you and the other users in your network like the freedom to print wirelessly? And, to
connect to more than one printer, without having to add print servers, wireless adapters, or
unsightly Ethernet cables? With NETGEAR’s 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server with 4-Port Switch,
now you can! In seconds, you can connect two printers and four PCs to your wireless network
– all with one simple device. NETGEAR’s 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server has two USB ports, as
well as a wireless Ethernet bridge mode with a 4-port switch. That means you can connect your
computer to your high-end color printer for your business use, and send the kids’ documents
to your older Inkjet printer – all without wires! Best of all, more than four users can use the
printer, without adding any additional wireless adapters.
You can place your printers anywhere in your home or office that works best for you, and share
access to them via your wireless network. You’ll get the most out of both printers, and you won’t
have to buy two separate print servers.
NETGEAR’s 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server employs powerful WEP Encryption and WPA-PSK to
keep your wireless network secure. In addition, it’s fully interoperable with 802.11b, 802.11g, and
RangeMax™ (MIMO-G) networks.
Do you have multiple users in your network? No problem. You can connect up to four PCs to
your wireless network, without adding any new adapters. The Wireless Ethernet Bridge function
in NETGEAR’s 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server makes it possible to connect a cluster of computers,
easily and cost-effectively. And with the sleek, stand-up case and small footprint of the Wireless
Print Server, you’ll save space in your home or office.
Are you the entire tech-support department for your network? Then you’ll be glad to know that
your NETGEAR 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server installs in seconds, thanks to the new Smart
Wizard Configuration Assistant. Smart Wizard automatically detects and configures your print
server, providing simple-to-understand prompts to guide you through the process. It’s fast, easy,
and completely hassle-free.
