The Lexmark 802.11g Wireless Print Adapter is designed to operate with only a single printer or MFP. A separate 802.11g Wireless Print Adapter must be purchased for each individual printer or MFP being placed on the wireless network. The Lexmark Wireless Print Adapter can be used in either ad-hoc or infrastructure mode.
---Ad hoc mode – a communications mode that allows one wireless device to communicate directly to another wireless device
--- Infrastructure mode – each wireless device communicates through an Access Point (AP) to the other device.
The Lexmark 802.11g Wireless Print Adapter allows users to easily convert a Lexmark printer with standard Ethernet connectivity to a wireless printer. The wireless adapter connects to the printer's existing Ethernet print server transforming the Ethernet signal to an 802.11g wireless signal.
Lexmark's solution allows enterprise customers to migrate to the 802.11g standard with zero IT investment. The wireless adapter allows you to leverage your existing investment in the Ethernet standard while delivering the convenience of wireless printing.
Works in conjunction with existing WI-Fi certified access points, or can be used in peer-to-peer networks not requiring an access point.
Offers Enterprise Level Security supporting TKIP, 802.1X and EAP/MD5 authentication Algorithms.
No need to configure software drivers and no need to modify existing printer settings.
Delivers up to 54 Mbps transfer rates and operates at a maximum distance of 1200 feet in open space.
This device is a bridge and passes all existing Ethernet functionality and application support including MarkVision Professional, bi-directional communications and protocols such as TCP/IP, IPX/SPX and AppleTalk.
Using a Print Server interface, compatible with Apple Mac OS, Microsoft Windows, Red Hat and SuSE Linux and HP-UX, IBM AIX and Sun Solaris UNIX.
Supports both 64-bit and 128-bit Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption. WEP encryption is an industry standard for securing wireless devices. When used with a hidden SSID and the restricted server list (on the MarkNet devices), wireless security becomes increasingly difficult for “hackers” to overcome.
