The D-Link DP-G301 Print Server is a 802.11g wireless Parallel Port Print Server
that can also connect to your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network. Now you can
locate parallel port printer services virtually anywhere in your home or office.
The DP-G301 manages the flow of print files from workstations or file servers to
connected printers, delivering print jobs to printers much faster than a file server
on a PC. With one parallel port, the
DP-G301 can connect to almost any printer
with a parallel port.
The DP-G301 includes easy-to-use software to install on most Windows-based
networks. Protocol support for TCP/IP, NetBEUI, and AppleTalk are provided to
ensure seamless connection to major networking operating systems.
The DP-G301 has a built in Web-based management feature that allows users
to easily configure and manage print queues through TCP/IP. The DP-G301 also
supports Telnet as an alternative method to configure the unit.
The DP-G301 improves network printing services in the following ways:
The DP-G301 delegates print jobs to the connected parallel port printer. This
provides workload relief to your file servers and allows the file servers’ full
capacity to be used for file access or other direct services to network users.
On peer-to-peer networks, workstations can print directly to the Print Server
without increasing the load of another workstation or server.
Because the DP-G301 is very portable and inexpensive compared to a
PC-based print server, and the Print Server connects to your file servers
through the network, printers can be deployed to locations of maximum
convenience to users.
Introduction
* Maximum wireless signal rate based on IEEE Standard 802.11g specifications.
Actual
data throughput will vary.
Network conditions and environmental factors, including
volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead
lower actual data throughput rate.

External Features
Port Connectors
The DP-G301’s parallel port is located on its front panel. The parallel port can be
configured using the
PS Admin
program or the print server’s Telnet interface. (See
the
PS Admin User’s Guide
, available on the CD that came with the DP-G301,
for information about configuring the print server’s ports.) The Print Server also
supports web configuration permitting users to configure settings through the web
browser.
The default IP Address is as follows:
Default IP Address – 192.168.0.10
Subnet Mask – 255.255.255.0
The DP-G301 offers extraordinary flexibility, operating with all major network
operating systems and protocols:
TCP/IP
UNIX lpr/lpd
Windows NT/2000, Windows ME, Windows XP
NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR Remote Printing
NetBEUI
Windows 2000/XP, Windows
ME, Microsoft LAN
Manager,
IBM LAN Server
AppleTalk
MacOS EtherTalk
Windows-based setup and administration software,
PS Admin
, is supplied with
the Print Server, making configuration and management quick and easy. The
Print Server also supports configuration and management via the Telnet protocol
for networks without Windows-compatible systems.
Note:
The PC’s IP Address must be in the same subnet as the Print Server’s IP Address for
the two devices to communicate. (For example, if your Print Server’s IP Address is
192.168.0.10, with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, then your computer’s IP Address
should be 192.168.0.x, where x is a value between 1-254, excluding 10.)
