Network Connector The AXIS 5900 can be installed as an IEEE 802.11b wireless print server or as an Ethernet attached print server and connects to the network wirelessly or via a twisted pair category 5 cable (10baseT and 100baseTX) or better.

Printer Ports The Axis Network Print Server print server is equipped with two high- speed IEEE 1284 compatible parallel ports (LPT1, LPT2). Any standard printer can be connected to any of the ports for network printing. Print data can be directed to any of the two ports simultaneously, which means that two different printers can be used at the same time, regardless of protocol.
