Time in use: 3 daysOverall: VERY useful!
Despite the REALLY long title - this is a very simple and very elegant little box! How many households out there now have more than one computer? Sometimes WAY more than one computer!! But do you really want to have a printer for every computer, complete with paper jams, running out of ink, etc, etc....?
So here's the solution - just share your printer across the network, and the great thing is that this little box makes that really simple. No messing around with Windows printer sharing, no need to keep one computer always switched on - just hook this box up to your main router and to your USB printer and you're done!
We've set this up with a Dell Photoprinter and it works very well - as fast as if it was connected directly, but no wires to my laptop! You can also share scanning and faxing capabilities from a multi-function printer, but do check the compatability chart on that one.
And if this is STILL too many wires for you... Check out the wireless version!
