Overview
The EtherFast Instant RAID comes with a built-in print server. Configuring
your Instant RAID’s printer is easy, and by networking a printer through your
Instant RAID you save space, money, and the hassles of dealing with a stand-
alone PrintServer. Any printer connected to the Instant RAID is available to
any network user, provided that user has access to the Instant RAID itself. It
will function exactly the same as any other network printer.
