Introduction
The Axis NPS 550 is a stand-alone network
print server for the Ethernet environment.
Using the NPS 550 makes it possible to
connect your printers anywhere in an Ethernet
network, allowing all network users access to
shared printer resources.
The NPS 550 connects your printer
directly to your Ethernet network, no
matter if you are using a PC, PS/2,
Macintosh or Unix system. The multiple
protocol support makes it possible to print
under NetWare, Microsoft and IBM
networks, Apple EtherTalk and TCP/IP
simultaneously.
In addition, the NPS 550 provides you
with two high-speed parallel ports and one
serial port, allowing any combination of up
to three standard printers or plotters. It
combines a high degree of user-friendliness
in both installation procedures and print
management with an equally high degree of
flexibility thanks to its powerful built-in
functions
