DPR-1260 RangeBooster G Multifunction Print Server

Description

Why buy more than one printer when you can share the one you've got? D-Link's Multifunction print server allows you to do just that. Wirelessly, of course.

FOUR PRINTERS, LESS WAITING
The D-Link RangeBooster G™ Multifunction Print Server (DPR-1260) is D-Link's most versatile and easiest to use Print Server yet. When attaching multiple devices, the Quick Installation Wizard takes all the work out of setting up the Print Server and configuring the attached printers. Multiple ports give you the option of adding multiple printers or multifunction printers to the network. RangeBooster G technology improves wireless performance, reducing the time required to send print jobs to the print server.

PRINTERS AND MULTIFUNCTION PRINTERS WELCOME*
Tested with over 100 different printer models, this Print Server offers class-leading device compatibility*. Using the web-based interface, easily scan documents and photos directly to your computer. This print server is compatible with a wide range of USB multifunction printers including the scanning functionality of select multifunction printers and is backward compatible with USB 1.1/1.0 printers.*

WIRELESS EXPANDABILITY
The Ethernet port on the Print Server can be used as a wireless bridge. This provides wireless connectivity for any Ethernet-enabled device, such as a computer, Digital Video Recorder (DVR), or Network-Attached Storage (NAS) to the wireless network.

WHAT THIS PRODUCT DOES
D-Link's new RangeBooster G™ Multifunction Print Server (DPR-1260) allows you to wirelessly share up to 4 USB Multifunction Printers (MFP) on your network. This innovative new print server allows multiple users to print using one of the four connected MFPs*. By supporting multiple printers over a wireless connection, this new print server is the ideal solution for your home, classroom, or office.

PRINT, SCAN AND CONNECT
Simply plug your USB printer into one of the four ports, run the automatic configuration wizard, and you are ready to start printing and scanning over your wireless network*. For extra network connectivity, you can also use the DPR-1260 to provide wireless connectivity to any ethernet-enabled device, such as a computer or network-attached storage (NAS).

	This is a must have. I have two multifunction printers and they work perfectly fine. It is an amazing product especially for a smallbusiness that you might have at home. Jonathan L.

	I purchased a [competitor] print server and couldn't get it to see my printers. I was on chat-line with their tech support rep for over an hour without getting it to work by the time I was off the phone. The next day, I went searching for this product and bought it. The setup was SO easy, I was up and running in about 10 minutes. I set up 2 PC desktops (running XP), 1 PC laptop (running Vista) and 1 Macintosh laptop to print to my HP Laserjet 1200 and my wifes Photosmart 7600 printer. No sweat at all. GREAT PRODUCT and Great Price too!! Russ W.

	I’m very impressed so far with the DRP 1260, flawless setup and operation, more than happy and surprised. While I do not have any MFP's I do have a HP Photosmart 145 and a HP 970cxi, both of which work great. After reading about the scanner functionality and how it works, it dawned on me that it would be a really nice feature if you could present the memory card reader on the Photosmart 145 via the web page as a directory with downloadable links for the files on the memory card. Another option would be to present the card reader as a file share and essentially use the 1260 as a file server in addition to a print server. Just an idea. Best Regards, Mike B.

	I was looking for a wireless print server for the HP OfficeJet 6110 that we have been using in our home. The printer was shared via a wireless notebook PC, but often when we needed to print something the PC was not connected to the printer. I was looking at an item from another manufacturer that offered print server and network bridging functionality, but not scanning. I was about to buy it when I found the D-Link DPR-1260. Once installed, it has worked great. I am pleased with the ability to print and scan across the network and the speed is almost as good as being wired. The scan interface even allows me to pick a portion of a document from the Preview Scan window. Amazing. This is an awesome addition to our home network. It works so well, I could also use it in a small office. Thanks, David S.
