Introduction
1.1 Overview
Thank you for purchasing and using WFP-151U. This MFP server allows your
Multi-function, all-in-one printer (called for short: MFP) or printer to become a shared device
on the network. Unlike many print servers, it can communicate with MFP and printer as if it
is connected directly to your computer. Because of the features, all users can share print,
scan, card reader and fax functions through the network. Furthermore, the MFP Server can
build the bi-directional communication with MFPs and Printers so that it can help to monitor
important information such as ink levels and paper levels.
The MFP server supports print, scan, card reader and fax sharing functions in the most
popular operating systems: Windows 2000 SP4 above, Windows XP SP1 above and
Windows Vista. It also supports Windows XP and Vista scanning utility and MFP vendors’
scanning utilities. When you want to scan in the Windows XP or Vista, you can choose one
of the utilities.
Not only be a MFP Server, this MFP Server can also be a traditional print server. It supports
TCP/IP network protocol and LPR, RAW and IPP printing protocols. It can share print
function in the various common network operating systems including Windows
98SE/Me/NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista, Unix, Linux and MAC OS 9.x above.
This MFP Server provides IEEE 802.11n/g/b wireless LAN (up
to 54Mbps data transfer rate), an Ethernet network port
(10/100Mbps Ethernet) and one USB 2.0/1.1 port for MFP or
printer. The MFP Server can be connected to your
802.11n/g/b wireless network or wired network. It is very
convenient and flexible to build up the MFP Server to your
network environment.
The MFP server is the best solution for users to share MFP or
printer conveniently and easily. It offers the most flexibility and
manageability for MFP or printer on your Local Area Network
at an extremely low cost and with an absolute minimum setup
and maintenance required.
