INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing your TE100-P1U USB 2.0 Print Server,
the easiest and fastest way to deploy printers on your network.
This compact print server can connect your network through an Access
Point under the infrastructure mode, or can be used in ad-hoc mode for
direct communication between computer/notebook and print server
anywhere you wish to locate printer services. It manages the flow of
print files from your workstation or file server to its connected printers,
delivering print jobs to high-performance printers much faster than a
file server or a computer acting as a print server can.
The pocket-sized Print Server features a Web-based Configuration
Utility, which allows you to set up the print server through the web
browser easily and quickly. It also includes a simple software utility
PS-Utility, a user-friendly program that allows you to complete
settings for the print server.
