About UoWPrint
UoWPrint is an up-to-date device created to bring wireless network capabilities to older printers, scanners, and all-in-one devices.
It is designed as an easy-to-use add-on appliance and allows you to:
- Convert your old USB printer (or MFP) into Wi-Fi printer/MFP
- Print and scan without drivers from Windows/macOS/Linux, as well as iOS/Android
Contrary to older-generation print server hardware or home routers with printer-sharing functions, UoWPrint does not require to install any printer-specific drivers or applications on your devices but uses universal standard drivers available in any contemporary operating system.
In other words, with UoWPrint you can use AirPrint and Mopria protocols on your USB-only printer.
Compatibility
UoWPrint is best compatible with consumer printers and MFPs released before 2018 and supports a very wide range of inkjet and laser printers and scanners, however some printers are not supported well or at all.
In general, HP devices work well, support for Samsung and Xerox is also quite complete, and compatibility with Canon depends on the generation of the device.
Some printers for which there is no driver for the ARM architecture run in x86 emulation mode, so printing may occur with a delay. Scanners operating in emulation mode work as usual, performance does not suffer from emulation.
