Customer Review: Beware, doesn't work will all printers
Summary: 1 Stars
One of the best examples of what's wrong with tech today. The Trendnet TE100 P1U packaging states that this print server will make "any USB printer into a network printer." False. After confronting Trendnet's tech support about why the TE100 P1U print server did not work at all for me, I was told that it doesn't support my type of printer! My type of printer is a Canon inkjet. As we know, Canon is a very rare and exotic brand of printer (sarcasm intended).
I was told the "TE100-P1U cannot apply on GDI type, Host type, Cart(Cannon), and Samsung(printer language)." So aside from Canon and Samsung, which printer will this work on and which will it not work on? Trendnet doen't say. Going to the Trendnet website is no help either as it does not say anywhere what type of printer (what's a GDI type of printer anyway) the TE100 P1U will or will not support.
When I asked to speak to a Trendnet manager about this problem, I was told that someone would contact me. Of course no one from Trendnet ever did contact me.
UPDATE: now after raising this issue of the TE100 P1U not working, the marketing messages on Trendnet's website now states the the TE100 P1U print server "makes virtually any USB printer into a network printer." I guess their lawyers made Trendnet insert the word "virtually" into their product description. However, Trendnet's website still does not state exactly what type of printer the TE100 P1U will work on.
The Trendnet TE100 P1U doesn't even make a good paperweight.
