20 Most Recent Trendware TRENDnet TE100-P1U Print Server Questions & Answers

1. The print server address is indepent of the router address. You have to set the print server address manually, and then 'add a printer' and assign it matching properties. For the individual who kept getting .102 then .103 (I did too), here's the fix. You need to assign an address that is higher than the max DHCP options. On my Linksys router setup, I found that it started assigning at .100 with a max of 50 users (up to .150). Therefore, I went into the print server and assigned mine .175. Then, I added a printer and under its properties, assigned the matching IP address.

2. When assigning the IP address (192.168.0.175 for mine) during 'Add a Printer', the Port field below it automatically fills in with an address of something like IP_192..... I had left this the same and followed the instructions from Trendnet as well. It did not work. Well the final solution that finally allowed me to print after hours of frustration, was to manually change this Port field to 'U1' thus matching the pop-up window that Trendnet instructions walk through (the one with LPR and bit enabling etc.) where it says to input U1. I decided to try U1 as the Port and it worked. And it was beautiful to hear the printer start cranking after hours of frustration. Good luck.
