HP JetDirect 610n Print Server (J4169A)

This is the reason I love these old HP printers. parts are plug and play and easily replaceable.

AS we who have older HP printers connected to networks know, these print servers are squirrelly at best; and replacements often don't work.I bought two from this vendor through Amazon, and had bought another earlier. All came in electrically protected bags and all three worked when installed. This is up from my previous vendor who sent only one working in three ordered and never made replacement. Curiously, these two cards were configured differently on arrival. They presented two different configuration pages, which seemed odd. I had never seen the second one; but it's not hard to figure out if you've ever struggled through HPs convoluted logic. Delivery was prompt; I used the supersaver and continue to be very happy with Amazon fulfillment.

Purchased these to place in a HP LaserJet 4200 and a HP LaserJet 8100. Works fine in both units (as they should, considering HP designed their JetDirect units and printers to be universal to one another).I purchased these used, so my only complaint is that they still had their original configurations loaded in them when they arrived, but it was a painless fix to get them up and running on the network.Installation was easy - just power off the printer, remove the two screws on that cover the first I/O plate on the back of the printer, remove the plate, slide this unit into the I/O slot, and hand tighten the built-in screws on the unit. Connect the Cat5 cable, power the printer back on, print your Network Configuration page, use your web browser to go to the IP address listed for the JetDirect on the configuration page, configure the unit, and you're good to go.

I had need to replace an the JetDirect card in my LaserJet Printer and found they "New" unit on Amazon. Ordering was simple and the unit arrived earlier than scheduled. Great service as always from Amazon. I put the card into my printer and followed the HP start-up instructions. Much to my surprise, this was a used unit, not new. It still had the previous customers network settings in the config. Had to perform a complete reset of the Card and Printer before I could configure my network settings. The card does work fine so far, but if something is advertised as new, I expect new. I know these are no longer manufactured and there are dozens of them out on the secondary market, but new should be new.

A lot of function for a very reasonable price. Linked easily under windows 7 but still having some difficulty installing on XP. It is very fast. The card was well packed and protected.

Yes, do like it..I’m glad that I found it in Amazon the printer working great.

A replacement

Got this from Amazon, had a hard time getting the unit to be recognized, contacted the vendor got no feedback or help.I was able to finally get it working by using some tricks to get the card configured, it worked for about a year and it quit.Since the seller would not help I was on my own.I have used HP products before and have had good success. I purchased another card from a different vendor, it worked as soon as I plugged it in, configured all settings and is running fine.
