Hey just a quick question to the Orcon staff - can you add a printer to the genius lite for it to be a printer server???

Thanks

Not sure if the orcon is going to be any better, but the other routers I have tried that offer USB printer sharing are just that, printer sharing. MFC, faxing, scanning - did not work. Couldnt do any of the maintanance tasks from one of the dialogs, couldnt get the ink levels.

If that will suit you then give it a shot, but you may find that you do all that and get it working only for it to let you down.
