[QUOTE="Erudite.Warrior, post: 272131, member: 11013"] Yes, the print server will work with both Mac and Windows. I have one in my home right now. My PowerBook and my wife's PC laptop are both able to print wirelessly to the printer. The print server is set up in a similar manner as your router. If you are using WEP, WPA, etc. you will have to enter that information into the print server. Also you will want to assign the print server a static IP address on your LAN. Once that is done you set up the printer (using IP printing) as you normally would. If your printer is networkable (has an RJ-45 jack) you could just use a network cable to wire your printer to your router. In this manner you would not need a print server. You would still want to assign the printer a static IP address though. [/QUOTE]
