Silex PRICOM SX-3100 Print Server SX-3100 Print Servers - Wired
This review is from : PRICOM 3100 Direct attach Parallel IPV6 10/100 Print Server
Difficult install but works great . We own 3 of these. Each installed on a Sharp AR-M207(EB) copier in 3 different offices and each serving a small (fewer than 8) peer-to-peer WinXP network. I don't know how the PriCom 3100 would install on any other printer but here is what I learned regarding these Sharp copiers. Maybe it will help somebody else.
I didn't get much help from Silex (PriCom) due to their lack of experience with this Sharp unit. They tried but had no real suggestions. Sharp support website was almost no help at all. 2 separate Sharp dealers had only very limited experience. Here is what I finally did for a successful installation and subsequent trouble-free operation.
Sharp AR-M207(EB) Network Install
Peer-to-peer network, Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 Professional
Printserver: Silex Pricomm 3100
1. Install Pricomm as instructed, using automatic (recommended) settings.
2. Take note of IP Address that Pricomm software assigns to Printserver.
3. Go to Add Printer on each computer on the network.
4. Even though this is a network printer, select "Local Printer attached to this computer."
5. Clear the Detect Plug and Play checkbox.
6. Select Create a New Port
7. Set Port Type to Standard TCP/IP
8. Enter the IP Address that Pricomm assigned earlier.
9. Complete the printer installation process. The driver is on the Sharp CD at \Drivers\Printer\EnglishA\SPCL\2KXP. Driver must be installed on each computer on the network.
10. Be sure to choose Do Not Share as you're completing the install.
11. Windows may inform you that the printer software isn't digitally signed. Install anyway.
Make sure your router includes the assigned IP address in its range of acceptable addresses.
PriCom 3100 does not enable shared scanning. Not designed for that. You can only scan to 1 host computer via the USB connection on the AR-M207 but you can easily share the destination folder with the entire network so this is no big deal.
I hope this helps others with similar install problems.
