IOGEAR Eases Printing Pains For SOHO and SMB Offices

USB Multi-Function Print Server allows numerous users to print, fax and scan from one device

Irvine, CA – February 8, 2006 – IOGEAR today launched its palm-sized USB Multi-Function Print Server, which allows all networked PCs in SOHO (small office, home office) and SMB (small, medium sized businesses) environments to access one
multi-function USB printer to print, fax or scan documents.

Unlike most products currently available on the market, this device supports two-way communication with a printer, providing real-time updates on ink or toner levels and progress reports on sending and receiving faxes. By connecting the print server to a wireless router, it immediately becomes a Wide Local Area Network (WLAN) unit, enabling wireless communication with all computers on the network.

Additionally, Web-based management software makes printer management fast and easy, enabling users to configure and reset the print server and monitor networked multi-function printers through a Web browser.

“In the past, many small and home offices have not had the ability to set up networked printers, and this can be costly due to the fact that users had to purchase multiple printers for employees," said Miranda Su, vice president of sales and marketing at IOGEAR, Inc. “By enabling a connection to the network port, our new print server enables multiple users to share one multi-function printer in order to meet all of their printing, faxing and scanning needs."

Priced at $99.95, IOGEAR’s USB Multi-Function Print Server (part number GMFPSU01) is available immediately from all major catalog resellers, online resellers and selected retail outlets. The product is USB 1.1 compliant, operates on Windows 2000/2003/XP operating systems, features an auto-sensing 10/100Base-T port and is backed by IOGEAR’s one-year standard warranty.
