NetGear PS121 (PS121NA) Print Server

Multi-user access to your printer is now simpler than ever. NETGEARs USB Mini Print Server does away with the hassles of sharing your printer among multiple PCs. Its easy external USB connection links one USB printer to as many as three PCs, so different network users can run multiple print jobs at the same time from anywhere on a home or office network. The attractive case design looks great in any environment, and its compact size allows you to place it close at hand or out of the way to open up your work area. Easy setup with NETGEARs Smart Wizard install assistant saves you time and effort so youre up and running in minutes. Since no parallel printer cable is needed, it saves you money, too.
