Chapter 1:

Product Overview

Thank you for choosing the Linksys Wireless-G PrintServer.

The PrintServer lets you connect a USB printer directly

to your network, so your networked computers can

share a single printer. It is compatible with most USB

multifunction printers, and it allows full access to printing,

faxing, scanning, and copying functions. Like any print

server, users on the network can print anytime. The other

functions are treated a little differently—any user can

request access to one of the other functions and get

exclusive use of that function until the task is complete.

Front Panel

USB (Green/Orange) The USB LED lights up

green when there is a printer connected to the

USB port. It flashes green when the PrintServer

is sending data through the USB port. The LED

lights up orange when there is a problem with

the printer.

Wireless (Green) The Wireless LED lights up

when there is a wireless connection. It flashes

when the PrintServer is sending or receiving

data over the wireless network.

Ethernet (Green/Orange) The Ethernet

LED lights up green when the PrintServer is

connected to a device through the Ethernet

port. It flashes green when the PrintServer is

sending or receiving data over that port. It

flashes orange when collisions are detected on

the Ethernet port.

Power (Green/Orange) The Power LED lights

up green when the PrintServer is ready for use.

It flashes green when the PrintServer is booting

up, a system self-test is running, or the firmware

is being upgraded. The LED lights up orange

when there is an error.
