PC Perspective takes a look at the Lantronix xPrintServer Home for iOS

Sometimes an odd product finds its way into our office and this week we have one of those very items. The xPrintServer Home from Lantronix is a networking device that easily configures existing printers on your home or office network to work with the AirPrint capability on your iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. It does this without the need for special applications on your phone, without having to buy new printers and without complex software based work arounds.

The unit itself is a small white plastic case that has an Ethernet connection, USB port and power connection. The Ethernet port needs to be connected to your router / switch and the USB port is for connecting one of more USB printers (via a USB hub). After attaching the power, the device goes through an incredibly simple, automatic configuration process.
