I have been using the PS113 for over two years now and it works well. With the latest firmware upgrades made available on the netgear web site, performance has improved and I'm happier with it that I was initially. I would recommend the unit, but suggest checking the netgear site to make sure that your printers are on the compability list before buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Innacurate reviews, April 4, 2003

This review is from: Netgear PS113 10/100 Print Server with 3 Parallel-Ports (Personal Computers)

The reviewer that said all computers must have NetBUI installed is 100% wrong. I am running this print server on my home network with only TCP/IP installed on all of my computers. He shouldn't blame the print server for his own network configuration issues.

Just to clarify, this device will work with Windows (95 through XP) along with Mac, Linux, and Unix (and any other OS that can do TCP/IP printing). The only catch is that you have to have a Windows pc to run the configuration utility. It will also function with Windows-style printing, so you can browse to it in network neighborhood and set it up that way. You can even name the ports, so I have two printers that are //printserver/hp5l and //printeserver/apollo.

I highly recommend this device. It does everything it claims to and more!

I have the 2 LPT port version of the PS113 print server. I found that it was quick and easy to setup, and works great with my Linux and Windows systems. I can print to the same printer from any system. It has enabled me to place my printer where it is convient for me instead right next to the computer, which is inconvient. The best part is that it can be configured from either Windows or Linux. I would recommend this print server to anyone who needs cross platform printing compatablity. I wonder what I ever did with out it. Keep up the good work Netgear!
