ACCESS TO USB PRINTERS THROUGH WLAN

This product provides the function of wireless-sharing of specific USB printers for Microsoft
Windows 2000/XP users in the network.
An up-to-date printer compatibility list is available on the Internet (please see link below) to
check the latest list of collected printers that have been tested with the AP-600RP-USB.
Both the input from Fujitsu Siemens Computers and customers using this product have
been incorporated. Printers able to print out the standard test page of Windows XP or
2000 have been labeled
ble). Due to the continuing evolution of the firmware (the operating system of the Access-
Point) adaptations will also be made with regard to printer compatibility. Printers listed as
being compatible with Firmware version 7.0 will continue to be so with future releases (e.g.
version 7.4).
Multipurpose printing devices with integrated fax or scanner are only supported in certain
conditions at the USB port of the AccessPoint. As a consequence of the multifunctionality,
it is expected that the vendors will extend the protocols – for example, for a scanner or for
control of an integrated fax. Incompatibilities are explained by these deviations from the
standard protocol.
Printers that are not listed have not been tested and may or may not work properly. No
general information regarding a printer vendor or a particular type of printer regarding
compatibility can be given.
