The Linksys PSUS4 is a neat little print server that supports a single USB attached printer. Just one problem, it doesn’t work.<\/p>\n
This device is one of those infuriating things that’s enough to put me off Linksys for good, despite some of their other products being excellent. The basic issue is that the IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) implementation is broken. It works from Windows because Linksys supply a driver to suit the device, but for proper IPP from Linux, it will print a single page in an unending loop.<\/p>\n
This link<\/a> to Redhat Bugzilla provides technical details of the problem. Whilst this is dated in Oct04, there are reports of the same problem going back to the PSUS4 release.<\/p>\n So why is it that a documented problem on a device with flashable firmare hasn’t been fixed after almost 2 years? I don’t know, but I’ve got a nice new one here if anyone wants to buy it, cos it’s bugger all use to me.<\/p>\n Keywords: psus4 cups linksys linux ipp<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Linksys PSUS4 is a neat little print server that supports a single USB attached printer.
