Product Description
Meet the AXIS 1440 print server, the easiest, most cost-effective way to connect the Epson Stylus Color 740, 740i and 850, and the Epson Stylus Photo 700, 750, and 1200 to your Ethernet network. Simply plug it into your printer's parallel port (no parallel cable required), connect it to your 10BaseT network cable, plug in the external power supply, run the installation software and you're in business. In minutes, everyone on your network can be churning out attention-grabbing, Photo Quality graphics and razor sharp black text. The AXIS 1440 lets you run TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, AppleTalk and NetBIOS/NetBEUI protocols (among others) simultaneously. So your Windows NT, Windows 95 and 98, Windows 3.x, Macintosh, UNIX and OS/2 workstations can all access the printer at the same time. Plus, the AXIS 1440 supports all familiar Novell Netware tools, including NW Admin and PCONSOLE- making pinpointing printer errors quick and easy. Monitoring printer and print server status is also a snap. Users and network administrators can monitor directly from their Windows or Macintosh workstations, or use any standard Web browser to monitor printer or print server status. The AXIS 1440 was designed and developed jointly by AXIS and Epson specifically for Epson ink jet printers. Its software architecture is based upon AXIS's ultra-reliable ThinServer technology. And its flash memory can be upgraded from a central point directly over your network, providing users access to the latest features as soon as they're released. Simple set up. Effortless monitoring. And the ability to upgrade in a flash. All at a remarkably affordable price. The AXIS 1440 is the smart way to give all the users on your network access to the persuasive power of Epson ink jet printers.
