USB Printserver for Canon S300?

Forum Computer Peripherals : Printers USB Printserver for Canon S300?

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

I have a Canon S300 (USB) printer that I want to access from multiple
systems on an ethernet network. The systems are wire-connected via a
Linksys BEFW11S4 switch (which also has 802.11b, but I want a wired
printserver, not a wireless one).

I've seen a few printservers around that look like they might do the
trick, but I'm not savvy enough to avoid making a mistake. The Linksys
PSUS4 looked promising, but the fine print on the box says it doesn't
support GDI printers.

I'm hoping someone with this printer can recommend a printserver
that they've had success with. Any suggestions?

Peter

I ahve this on a i560 and it works perfectly.

Most of the mainstream units will not work.

Thanks! Do you know if these are available in the United States?
