Introduction

TM
N1 Ethernet
Adapter, the solution to all your printer sharing needs!
The adapter makes it easy for you to:
•
Share your printer between two or more network
computers.
•
Locate your printer anywhere in your home or office.
You no longer need to locate the printer next to a host
computer or make sure a host computer is powered
on before sending your print job from a remote
location.
•
Quickly transfer information.
Your new adapter has the capability to transfer
information at up to 100 Mbps.
