DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide

The DP-301P is a pocket-sized device for connecting a printer
directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet local-area network (LAN).
The DP-301P will manage the flow of data from networked
computers to the connected printer, delivering jobs to the printer
much faster than a computer acting as a file server or print server
can.

The DP-301P improves network printing services in three ways:

♦

 

The DP-301P picks up the workload of managing print file
traffic to the connected printer. This provides workload relief to
your file servers, and allows the file servers' full capacity to be
used for file access and other direct services to network users.
On peer-to-peer networks, workstations can print directly to the
DP-301P without increasing the load of another workstation or
server.

♦

 

The DP-301P's IEEE 1284-compliant high-speed bi-directional
parallel printer port can transmit data much faster than a
computer's parallel printer port can. A high-speed laser printer
can be driven at its full capacity.

Because the DP-301P is very portable (pocket-sized) and
inexpensive compared to a computer-based print server, and
