# Wireless Printing for UNIX, NT, and Windows

**Wireless Printing for UNIX, NT, and Windows
 [Price List](https://digital-controls.com/List_pri.htm#freeprice)**

FreePrint is a new and completely proprietary design that has been approved by both the FCC (US) and the DOC (Canada). It is based on technology originally developed by the US government to protect secret data transmissions that could not be trusted to more vulnerable wired connections. What this means to you is the fastest, easiest, and most flexible way to share printers between DOS, NetWare, Windows and UNIX.

**Incredibly Easy to Install and Use**

Out of the box, FreePrint is "Plug-and-Print" ready to connect printers and computers. Any FreePrint adapter plugs directly into the parallel port of either a computer or printer. This flexibility makes it easy to change your office set-up without buying additional adapters.

- No cards to install
- FreePrint is plug-and-print ready
- More secure than wires that can be tapped
- No software drivers to install
- No holes to drill, no wires, nothing else to buy.

**Astoundingly Fast and Efficient**

FreePrint effectively prints at speeds exceeding parallel connections. They send data at rates equal to hundreds of pages per minute. FreePrint is 5 to 10 times faster than most wired printer sharing and much faster than printing over most networks.

**Let Your Printer Move Around**

Make printer access more convenient for your users. With FreePrint you can move your printers where ever you want. FreePrint can also be used with a print server to reach places a wire could never reach.

**Extremely Flexible**

FreePrint adapters can be used on either a printer or a computer. FreePrints built-in print manager handles multiple print requests that happen at the same time. If FreePrint is used on a network server, the server's print management software handles the print queue, just as if there were a wired connection.. FreePrint is so easy an so fast, it will change the way you connect to your printers, forever.

**Multiple PCs to a Printer-**

FreePrint eliminates the need for networking to share printers and saves the cost of additional printers. Since you do not have to install a network, you also save the cost of network cards, cables, extra hardware and installation.

**Server To Multiple Printers-**

Get rid of that 25 foot parallel cable leash and get your network printer close to the people who need convenient access. FreePrint is compatible with existing LANs and can inexpensively increase your network's functionality.

**Off-Load Network Print Traffic-**

Leave the network available for critical transactions. FreePrint can also be used for mission critical applications as a back up when the network is down.

**Even more flexible for print servers-**

Let that network print server drive up to eight wireless printers.
