I want to connect LaserJet M1132 through router D-Link DIR320. Is it possible?

Hi,

 

The printer has one LAN port and the router has 4 LAN ports therefore Yes, you can connect the printer to one LAN port on the router using a normal CAT5e/Cat6 cable. The setup will look like this:

Hey Anri68,

 

I looked up the product specifications for the M1132 (M1130 series) Laserjet.  One can find this page by clicking here.

 

From this information one can see that the M1130 series has only a USB port for connectivity.

One could connect the printer by USB to a wireless print server for network connectivity, but the printer itself is only supplied with a USB 2.0 port for connectivity.  Hope this helps.

Yes, I know - theoretically it is possible, on practic no. I try it. Connection doesn't work. And because I ask Community who solve it?

Hi,

The M1132 only support USB connection and only provide connectivity to a single computer.

 

The D-Link DIR320 as a print server allow connecting the printer to the USB port of the router and use the printer through the network.

Using a 3rd party hardware which adds additional functionality is not supported by HP and you may contact the vendor (D-Link) for any assistance using their 3rd party hardware.

 

Be aware that using such a print server will only allow basic print functionality, it will not provide you any other software functionality as fax sending from the computer, scanning or using the HP Toolbox software.

 

Additionally be aware that not any print server supports printers which uses the Host-Based printing language as used by the M1132.. that is fully up to the print server's capabilities and you may try following the steps and check if that work.

 

You may follow your router's user guide to setup a printer, check page 41 of the guide:
