D-Link's DPR-1020 Print Server allows you to connect a USB Multi-Function Printer
(MFP) to your existing Ethernet network. This product lets multiple users print, scan
and fax using the connected printer. The DPR-1020 also manages the flow of print
files and delivers print jobs quickly and efficiently.
The DPR-1020 comes with easy to use software compatible with most
Windows-based networks. Protocol support for TCP/IP, NetBEUI, and AppleTalk are
provided to ensure seamless connection to major networking operating systems.
The DPR-1020 has a built in web configurator that allows users to easily configure
the Print Server and manage multiple print queues through TCP/IP.

workstation or server.
The DPR-1020 Print Server is portable and cheap compared to a PC-based print
server. This means you're able to deploy the DPR-1020 in locations that offer
maximum convenience to users.
