Introduction
The D-Link DP-G310 Print Server is an 802.11g Wireless USB 2.0 high-speed print
server that also can connect to your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network anywhere you
wish to locate printer services. The DP-G310 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 or a PC acting as a print server can. With one USB 2.0
port, the DP-310 can connect to almost any printer with a USB connector.
The DP-G310 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-G310 has a built in Web-Based management feature that allows users to
easily configure and manage multiple print queues through TCP/IP. The DP-G310
also supports Telnet as an alternative method to configure the unit.
The DP-G310 improves network printing services in the following ways:

The DP-G310 picks up the workload of managing print file traffic to its connected
printers. 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.

The DP-G310’s USB printer port is USB 2.0 port, which can transmit to
high-speed laser printer much faster than a PC’s USB printer port. High-speed laser
printer connected to the Print Server’s USB port can be operated at their full
