Recommend a Wireless Print Server for A Samsung USB Laser Printer

Hi,

I have a USB-only Samsung laser printer (ML-2850D). It's duplex, good quality etc but I need to locate it remotely from my PC so I want to find a compatible wireless print server. On the recommendation of Samsung customer support, I bought a Netgear WGPS606 but that doesn't work (they have now washed their hands of the recommendation) ... the wireless print server can be added to my wireless network fine but when I send a print job to the ML-2850D to which it is connected, no joy (print job just stalls, nothing happens). Can anybody recommend a wireless print server which will work with the ML-2850D?

As my second preference, I have a Dell All-In-One 946 which is the USB connected local printer that I use from my PC. I could connect the Samsung to my printer locally and use the Dell with a wireless print server ... can anybody suggest a wireless print server that will work (has worked) with this Dell?

So - first preference - Samsung ML-2850D compatible wireless print server; second preference - Dell All-In-One 946 compatible wireless print server.

Thanks for that,
