What customers say
This print server offers excellent long-term value by successfully extending the life of older Brother printers, saving replacement costs. Users report the hardware is robust and reliable once operational, maintaining stable connections for consistent printing. However, the core theme is setup difficulty. Many customers face significant hurdles during initial configuration, citing complex wireless setup, reliance on outdated installation media, and compatibility issues with modern operating systems and security protocols. This challenging software experience frustrates less technical users. While the device is valuable for networking legacy machines, be prepared for a potentially time-consuming installation process.
