Review: Works excellent - Highly recommended. - This device isn't exactly a straightforward print server. The sellers know this device setup is confusing - they tell you constantly to read and follow the instructions or follow the videos on YouTube. Listen to them and do that. I've been in IT for quite a while and when you get the product, you think you'll know better --- you don't. This device is set up very specifically and you need to follow the instructions even when they seem weird or wrong. I assume the hardware was a firewall or something and was repurposed by Cheecent as a print server. Once you understand that the hardware is sort of universal, it's actually a lot easier. It's got functions, items, routing tables, DHCP server, I assume a firewall in there somewhere, etc that just aren't used for being a print server. Here are the cliff notes. The LAN port is used specifically for configuration. It does nothing else. I'm sure for some other applications that use this hardware LAN is used for a whole bunch of other stuff - in this print server device, it's used for nothing but initial configuration. It's default setting is 192.168.6.1. Connect your laptop using ethernet - I don't believe you need a crossover cable. You'll need to statically assign your computer a IP on the same subnet - 192.168.6.100, for example. This is only a method to configure the print server, once you're done with the configuration step, you'll never need the LAN port again, unless you need to reconfigure something. Configure your WAN port with an internal address on the same subnet as everything else on your network. You do this for the wireless or wired port, one or the other. If your internal gateway ip is 192.168.1.1, set it up to something static that's not used, they recommend 192.168.1.248, but you can do whatever as long as it's not currently in use on your network. Set up your subnet mask etc; DNS shouldn't be needed or the gateway in normal circumstances. Don't use DHCP, as you're going to use this IP as the printer's port, and you don't want it changing. You might want to visit the print server page at this step and turn off the bi-directional printing option on the USB ports. It's recommended in the instructions; I turned it off and never looked back. Hook up your printer to one of the usb ports, plug the power in. Hook up your network cable to WAN if you're using wired, or nothing if you're using wireless. Wait a couple of minutes for it to boot up. For printer installation on the computer, install as normal and use a jet direct port with your WAN IP colon corresponding port number. For example, 192.168.1.248:9100 for USB1 or 192.168.1.248:9101 for USB2. I'm sure you could hack this thing and do a bunch of stuff with it. I'm not sure why or what you would want to do, but it seems the hardware is general purpose. Maybe they could have made set up easier, blocked the lan port with a piece of tape and allowed management from the WAN port; I don't know nor does it matter. Once it's set up, I'm not planning on ever touching it again as long as I don't need to change my wireless name or internal IP address. As a print server, once it's set up it's been rock solid which is by far the most important thing. BTW I'm using this with a Zebra Eltron LP2844 CTP with an mfg date of 2004 and on an iMac. Works great - but wasn't on the compatibility list. If anything changes, I'll update the review, but I'm really happy with this device.
Review: It works! But it takes a few hours to get there. - Once you get past the installation configuration nightmare, it took me 2 hours to install due to several minor changes in the Windows 11 software windows vs the printed instructions, (hint use control panel) this print server allowed my HP 2430tn to print from its USB port wirelessly. The unit has good signal reception. The instructions included are fairly well organized, if you have a magnifying glass. The videos online go through the installation, albeit too quickly to follow the steps for newbie’s. I bought a second unit 3 days later to connect to my other 2430 printer that’s located in another building, and that setup still took me 2 hours via the instructions, even though I had already installed the first one, yes it’s complicated. The good? Both printers are wireless, print fast, and work flawlessly. You can use both printers at the same time in two different locations from any computer on my private network. Crap, with another 4 hours, I could add another 2 printers if I wanted to! I give it a 5 star rating for the control you have over it and that it does the job, the setup is what it is. Hey Bill, a little AI would be helpful here in this setup with Windows 11.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work for our windows 11 laptops to connect our brother mcf-9120cn wirelessly?**
A: Not feedback from client about pixma brother mcf-9120cn yet.
The MCF-9120cn have scan function, the print server is not support scanning. Thanks.

**Q: Can it be used with a canon pixma ip1500?**
A: It Canon Pixma MG3500 series MP, not support Canon PIXMA iP1188.
Not feedback from client about pixma ip1500 yet.
You can have a try. If it is not support. We support return and refund. Thanks.

**Q: Can this be used for more than printers? A usb extension of sorts?**
A: It is not suggested to use as a USB extension of sorts. Because the print server system is designed to replace printer host, it helps multiple computers in the same office/home network to share the printer. Very helpful for small business users to reduce the purchase of more printers.
See this video on how to set up it to support Thermal Label Printer DYMO LabelWriter 550/450.

**Q: Can I use this on a  Otur Laser?**
A: No, because your Otur Laser must have its protocol. 
This device is design for printer, not support laser.

### ⭐ bloated features, unreliable wifi connectivity
*by N***A on February 3, 2026*

unreliable. set it up fine. if anything, it has way too many features. I already have a physical firewall, dns servers, etc. I do not (and I think almost no one) needs that in a print server. it worked great with my zebra label printer, but it loses connection to wifi essentially rendering it useless. I am not running a cable to something I bought for its wifi capability, especially when it is 10' form an AP. I am running enterprise grade cisco APs, there is no reason why this print server shouldnt be able to stay connected. I have a cheap iomega print server that is 10 years old and manages to not drop from the network. I end up having to power cycle it by pulling the plug and reconnecting it, and then it automatically reconnects to wifi and prints whatever was in queue. this has to be some sleep or power saving function that is built in. completely unnecessary.
