5.0 out of 5 stars Works on my network with win XP Pro and Win 98SE, April 10, 2005

This review is from: D-Link DP-301P+ 10/100TX 1-Centronic Port Print Server (Personal Computers)

Works fine. set up three of them on my network. 3 XP Pro computes computers and one running Win 98SE. Need to change the defauld IP addresss on each additional DP-301P+ after you use the default ip address for the first one (using the web browser to access the units ). For win 98 you have to go read the manual on the CD (a .PDF file) for installing on win 98, and ME ect..and run the included software to install the print client for the network. On win XP all you have to do is set the IP address, look at the port name in the configuration screen, and then use the win XP "install printer wizard" using the ip addrss and port name per the instructions.. I.E. the guy below who could not install it using ME apparantly did not read the Manusl on the CD for specific instructions for installing on a Win 98, or ME computer ..nor did he run the software needed to make it work on Win 98 or ME.

4.0 out of 5 stars Shares printers wireless/wired reliably. Not for digital pix, January 27, 2005

This review is from: D-Link DP-301P+ 10/100TX 1-Centronic Port Print Server (Personal Computers)

Got this on sale cheap and put several printers onto wired ports on my Linksys WRT54G home WLAN. The quick-start info is all you need for setup. Works ok under Win XP Pro & Linux Fedora 3 provided printer is powered on before you need it; otherwise an incomplete file is sent and you get pages of garbage from Postscript printers at least. Windows gives useless feedback on print failures, so be prepared for frustration. Note: this has a Centronics-type connector not USB, so is slow for big (digital camera) files. But fine for text and Web graphics.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad product support, August 14, 2005

This review is from: D-Link DP-301P+ 10/100TX 1-Centronic Port Print Server (Personal Computers)

I set up everthing according to the Quick install. All setting is correct but i still could not print. I call Technical support,on hold for 20 minuts then told me he was not the right support agent. Back in the loop i go . wait for 30 more minutes 2nd agent told me the same thing. Don't waste your time calling thier support. if it work out of the box great if not return it don't waste ur life like i did.
