Hi!
I think about buying a wl500gx.
I also would like to use it as PrintServer, but I only have a ParPort Printer.
My first Idea was to buy one of this little Print Server, suporting just one printer. But they are quite expensive. So I looked around and found "adapter cables" parport <-> usb-port. These cables are shipped with special drivers, supporting all windows-versions, but no linux. Has anyone expiriences with this kind of adapter?
The second thing, i cannot find any shop providing the gx! Even the asus-page does not provide any information about it. Is it not produced anymore?!? Whats up with that?
Thanks for your help and trying to understand my terrible english ;)
