Wireless Networking
The EpsonNet 802.11b Wireless Print Server is designed for use in a small 
office, home, or school network. On a wired network like the one illustrated 
below, the computers and other equipment share information and Internet 
access through a series of cables. 
With a wireless network, you share information between computers and 
printers using radio waves, similar to the technology used in cordless phones. 
You can place your printer in a convenient location and use it without having 
to connect it to your computer or network.
You can add the EpsonNet 802.11b Wireless Print Server to your network 
either with or without a wireless access point (or AirPort
 Base Station). 
If you have an access point/base station, both wired and wireless-equipped 
computers can use the printer. An access point might also allow computers to 
share other resources, such as Internet access.
