That's why we have 2 print servers on each site, they haven't been fully
configured properly yet, the main site uses a dns alias
I usually add them on request. Remember, we only have less than a hundred users
here...

Can anyone recommend inexpensive print servers that do not require
proprietary software.
Unfortunately USB-attached HP JetDirects are the only ones I've used
that don't:
a) require software to be installed
b) don't have stupid printer compatibility problems
c) don't have stupid reliability problems
I don't know if eBay is an acceptable source for this situation but you

Not using it because we ended up getting a whole bunch of network printers.

I'm sure it works great when the printer has an ethernet port.
When the printer doesn't have an ethernet port...

I got one of these based on generally good reviews, and it was on sale with
free shipping at the time so it only costed $38:

It has some software, but it is not required. There are instructions in the
manual on how to set it up via

What the heck are you talking about??? Most of the Netgear stuff I've seen
is simply configured through a web-based GUI. No proprietary software or
anything like that!

Ditto for most of the inexpensive consumer-grade units from Linksys and DLink.
My opinion here may be suspect, but I like the Dlink ones. Just be sure that
the printer model is compatible ( long history of fighting with HP Laserjet
1020´s ) ...

You could just throw the printers in the trash and buy some HP OfficeJet
8500 printers on sale for about $80 each. They are cheaper per page
than laser printers (they use large ink tanks - black and 3 color
tanks). They have built in Ethernet (similar to Jet Direct but nicer).

How do users add new printers? Adding a TCP/IP printer port usually requires
admin rights.
