In the face of the diversification of informatics devices, to be able to choose a satisfactory and effective computer equipment is one of the simplest products for printing. Indeed, if you used to work in a network environment and there were many computers in the network, but only one printer shared the entire network, then you would feel very frustrated when printing. If the computer is connected to a divided printer, there will be problems such as: damage, hang up, restart or shutdown, as if the printing capability is blocked.

As I think, because agencies often pay attention to cost-saving issues, few employers will spend money to equip a computer that is only for printing. Yes, with mobility in performance, employers are only equipped with a certain computer for employees that are capable of undertaking a lot of work. As you know, a computer using the time can not fail to be damaged more or less, so when damaged, it is inevitable to affect the whole network when this computer is directly connected to printer sharing. For the above reasons, I would like to introduce a solution in printing LAN (family or work) details as follows:

We invest in buying a Print server, this tool usually has many different types and prices: (using USB and Parallel ports). According to the online reference, I recommend that you choose Parallel port because it runs very stable and if the USB port is faulty, if you find one with both USB and Parallel ports, the more Good, You can customize the use easier! According to the content of this article, I would like to introduce a type of Repotec-type Print Server with 3 Parallel and 1 RJ45 ports as shown above, you can buy at Nguyen Hoang supermarket, at 104 Nguyen Van Cu, Nguyen Cu Trinh Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City for 82USD (without VAT).
