Setup and working within 5 minutes!:

Great product! The instructions were clear and simple, and I had this item working within 5 minutes of opening the box. I don't know what the deal is with everyone complaining about the setup.

Finally!!! I don't need to leave my desktop computer on to print stuff from other computers on my home network! For everybody's information, I'm running Windows 2000 Professional with a 4 port wireless router.

Works Like it Should with Little Fuss.:

I don't know what everyones problem is, but if you follow the instructions you can configure this and set up your PCs in about 15 minutes if you just follow the instructions. I followed the instructions and everything went smoothly.
This does use the Centronics port and fits my BJC-1000 perfectly converting the printer port to an ethernet port.

Now I don't have to have my PC on for my wife to be able to print. YAY!

Parallel interface is Centronics -- not D25:

Grrrrr...
The product specs for the DP-101P+ indicate the product supports a "Parallel Port Connection" -- however that connection is on the printer side, not "computer" side. I had ordered this to use with an HP1100 printer. HP has chosen for several printer models to move to a more compact connector type. As a result, this device will not work without some kind of adapter -- which may exist but I'll not take the time to find.

I guess this is not totally D-Link's fault, but I think they could have... more info
