The Wireless Print Server is a Wireless station, NOT access point. Like all other Wireless stations, they have 2 modes:
•Ad Hoc mode (Default)- no Access Point is used, Wireless stations communicate directly with each other.
•Infrastructure - all Wireless stations connect to the Access Point. This allows connection to both other Wireless stations and the wired LAN.
