Thank you for purchasing and using our MFP print server. This FPS-1010M /
Note
FPS-1010MG allows your Multi-function printer (called for short: MFP) or printer
to become a shared device on the network. Unlike many print servers, it can
communicate with MFP and printer as if it is connected directly to your computer.
Because of the features, all users can share print, scan, fax and card reader
functions through the network. Furthermore, the FPS-1010M / FPS-1010MG can
build the bi-directional communication with MFPs and Printers so that it can help to
monitor important information such as ink levels and paper levels.
For other environments, or any problems, please refer to the full
