This little print server works quite well, but has to be power cycled once every three months or so. Firmware is very outdated (2009) and administration interface is http only (no encrypted communication). By default, administration also requires no password.
Plus: no special software installation required on client computers (Linux, Windows) - you still need a printer driver, of course
Note: does not support fax or scan functions on multifunction printers, which is also stated by the manufacturer
Bottom line: nice, inexpensive print server for a home or home office network. For any environment that has untrusted or "semi-trusted" users, like a business/office setting, I would not recommend this device due to the weak security.
