I haven't worked with any wireless print servers, but there's a good chance that they, like many wireless routers, don't support wireless bridging. In such a case you'll need two dedicated APs for that.
No, Hans, that is exactly what these things are designed for.
Of course you need a wireless router of some kind, but you don't need two of these wireless print servers, Just one plus your household wireless router.
Sorry, John, I was not clear. I meant you need two bridging capable access points if you don't use a wireless print server. Like I said, I haven't worked with the wireless print servers, except one that was an access point with a built-in print server.
No Hans, I have a (non-wireless) network laser printer connected to a Linksys WAP54G accesspoint, which provides then for a wireless "cable" to my router, from where the printer can be used by any PC in my network. The WAP54G should be configured as "wireless repeater" in this setup. Works like a charm.
