First .. thanks for the KVM emails this past week. You helped me narrow in on some hardware that will work for what I need. I will be moving my office shortly and I want to "clean up" a number of messy network issues that have created themselves over time ... laziness or hurrying to get something to work ... I need to streamline some things. One is a print and file server. Concern: I want to be able to run my HP OfficeJet 6310xi All-in-One via the printer server ... and ... have the ability to scan documents, etc. to a computer, whether it be a Linux or Windows box. It is a USB connection ... or can be connected via the network itself (I believe that its capabilities are limited for Linux when hooked up on the network connection). Hooking it straight to a Linux box ... appears to have limited some of its capabilities already. The scanning of documents is flakey ... and sometimes does not work at all. Anyone have any experience to share with me about print servers and the ability to actually take full advantage of all features from one of these all in ones? Maybe I am doing something wrong ... fancy that :-) Thanks in advance. Randy
