A USB print server is used when you have a home network but you don’t want to share access (of the computer) with other PC’s on your network.==Has to have a ethernet connection to the network.

Setup: Printer to USB server. USB server in the router.

A wireless print server is used when you don’t want your print server attached to your network with a ethernet cable. (you use the ethernet cable to set up the server) but the the printer and the server can be in a room where there is no ethernet connection.

Setup: Printer to wireless server (most are USB connections). This can be placed anywhere after setup.

Which one should you get? Don’t know. I don’t know what your setup (# of computers, home network setup, etc) are.
