Reliability

The AXIS 5900 print server provides high performance and reliability 

combined with low power consumption. The electronic circuits are based 

on the AXIS ETRAX 100 LX chip, which comprises an integrated 32 bit 

RISC processor and associated network controllers.

Flexibility

The AXIS 5900 print server supports printing over the WLAN or printing 

over the wired network. The print server supports printing in all major 

computer systems and environments, including five different print 

methods in the TCP/IP environment. It also allows you to print on two 

printers simultaneously. 

The Axis Network Print Server works in both wired (LAN) and wireless 

(WLAN) networks in ad hoc (computer to computer) mode or 

infrastructure mode (AirPort network).

The integrated IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) function allows for 

printing from LAN to LAN via a WAN, such as the Internet.

Cable Speed

The AXIS ETRAX 100 LX chip supports data transfer rates of up to 200 

Mbit/s (100 Mbit Ethernet full duplex).

Wireless Speed

The Axis Network Print Server supports the IEEE 802.11b wireless 

standard with a data rate of up to 11 Mbps over a WLAN.

Multi-language

Support

The print server’s Web interface and Help pages are available in English, 

French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. The default language is 

English. See Language Setting, on page 97.

Easy to Install

Install the Axis Network Print Server for wired or wireless network 

printing in just a few minutes. AXIS 5900 installs, operates and is 

managed in the same reliable and easy way as other Axis network print 

servers.

Security

You can assign passwords to restrict both login and printer access. It is 

also possible to disable protocols and to configure a secure mode (https). 

AXIS 5900 supports data encryption and access control using WEP 

(Wired Equivalent Privacy).
