Gwen,

We do not currently provide support for the HP wireless print servers. We might look into supporting these in the future but we don't have any plans or ETA on when/if ever we will provide support.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your support of HPLIP.

Aaron,

I figured out that the HP 2101nw is not a print server but a port extender.
The USB communication is transferred to a virtual port.
All processing happens on the main computer.

HP confirmed this.

Any idea where I can find the info to do this in Linux?

Regards,

Gwen
