Axis Communications 5500 Network Print Server - Parallel and USB 17300401

The 5500 Network Print Server from Axis Communications allows you to share your parallel or USB printer over Ethernet, without the need to use a computer as a print server. Simply plug the server into your printer via the Centronics parallel or USB connection, and plug the server into your network via a standard RJ-45 Ethernet connection. The server is administered through a web-based admin tool that can be accessed from any computer on your network. The server supports both Windows and Macintosh clients.

Key Features

• Print Server: The print server allows you to share your parallel or USB printer among computers in your network without the need for a computer to act as a print server. This lets you easily print from various computers that are part of your network.
• Compact Size: The server is much smaller and lighter than a dedicated PC print server. It measures only 2.4 x 1.1 x 4.6" and weighs less than a quarter pound, making it easy to install and move.
• Administration Utility: The server can be administered via an easy-to-use utility that can be accessed from any computer in your network with a web browser. A password can be set so that unauthorized users will not be able to modify the server settings. The AXIS ThinWizard software for Windows is also included, letting you manage multiple servers from a single screen.
