Quoted from the PDF troubleshooting guide their help desk sent me some time ago:
>>8) AsanteTalk versus Micro AsantePrint >>. The Micro AsantePrint is an older version of the AsanteTalk with some >>additional features and some limitations. >>. The Micro AsantePrint is better suited for large networks with Appletalk >>zones. It includes a software program that allows you to select in which >>zone the device and its printers appear. >>. The Micro AsantePrint will not work when connected to an autosensing >>port or computer. Thus, it cannot be connected directly to an iMac, Blue >>& White G3, or a 10/100 hub or switch. >>. The Micro AsantePrint is for printers only. Localtalk computers are not >>supported for file sharing. Maybe we are talking about a different box? The one I have is "Mac color" beige, has a power receptacle and a DIN-8 serial plug on one side; a bulge with the word Asante, four indicator lights and the words "Micro AsantePrint" on the top; an RJ-45 jack and a "Wide" ethernet plug on the other edge.
