Review: unit works, but WORST customer service EVER - I will never buy another D-Link product. After buying this wireless print server, I followed all install instructions but couldn't get it to work. I assumed it was me, so I paid a PC technician to help me out. He spent 2 hours on the phone with D-Link tech support troubleshooting, and they decided the unit was faulty. When I called customer service to find out how to exchange it, they sent me back to tech support and made me troubleshoot again before they would give me a return merchandise authorization (RMA). After I paid a skilled tech more than $100 to be on with their techs!!! Overall I had to talk to three people and spent 45 minutes on hold to get the RMA. Finally I got my RMA and sent the unit back, with all documentation and accessories. When they sent me a replacement, it was just the unit, no manuals, no software, not even an AC adaptor. So I had to spend 20 more minutes with their excruciatingly annoying hold music to talk to customer service. They "promised" me the AC adaptor and manual, but who knows if I'll ever actually get it. Add to that a complete lack of contrition over selling me a bad product in the first place, and I'm just really disappointed in the whole experience and feel like I've wasted a lot of time and money (price of the unit + tech guy). If I ever get the thing running (with my Netgear router and brother MFC6800 printer) I'll post again about how/if it works. Update: They did send me the AC power cord and I was able to get the thing up and running but only after blundering through on my own - I found the documentation unhelpful in that the instructions stopped 1/2 through the setup process. So, although I now enjoy having my printer remote from my computer, I still won't ever buy another product from D-Link. Review: The most difficult thing in the world to configure - Problem #1 - out of hte box, these units are assigned 192.168.0.10 as an IP address. find if your network is on the .0 subnet. So I had to change my entire network over to this in order to get it configured. Problem #2 - once changed, now i have Ip address issues because of the existing clients picking up the .10 address. Problem #3 - If you incorrectly specificy the SSID/wep key or IP address, you have to put it back to the defaults and start over. there's no way to configure the unit Problem #4 - it just plain don't work as it should. Easily the most difficult unit i've ever had to configure. It's a shame that I'm swearing off linksys as their prices are good. Despite it's decent price, stay away from this one. ## Features - Supports all major network operating systems and protocols - Supports both infrastructure or ad-hoc wireless modes - Easy configuration with a web browser or Windows-based configuration program - Transmit to high-speed laser printers faster than a PC parallel port - Extremely portable and inexpensive compared to a PC-based print server ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #212 in Computer Networking Print Servers | | Customer Reviews | 3.0 out of 5 stars 11 Reviews | ## Images ![D-Link DP-311U Wireless Print Server, 1-USB Port, 802.11b, 11Mbps - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31FEW78DK9L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: does this work with windows 10?** A: Not 100% sure, but since it says Supports all major network operating systems and protocols, and you might be able to run in compatibility mode to further help your cause if necessary. **Q: this will fit multifuncional epson 220?** A: I imagine it should if your printer has a USB Port **Q: Can I print from a cell phone?** A: This device was discontinued in 2006 and is very old.

Furthermore, there is no indication that the installation software is only for Windows 3.1 through Windows XP, and is not compatible with Windows 7 and Windows 10. Amazon should not let this product be marketed without full disclosure that it is obsolete. ## Frequently Bought Together - D-Link DP-311U Wireless Print Server, 1-USB Port, 802.11b, 11Mbps - TP-Link TL-SG1005P, 5 Port Gigabit PoE Switch, 4 PoE+ Ports @65W, Desktop, Plug & Play, Sturdy Metal w/ Shielded Ports, Fanless, QoS & IGMP Snooping,black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7165429-d-link-dp-311u-wireless-print-server-1-usb-port](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7165429-d-link-dp-311u-wireless-print-server-1-usb-port) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
