Abstract
A printer system for printing data from a network device connected to a network connection system is disclosed. The printer system includes a primary printer coupled to the network connection system by a network interface unit and one or more secondary printers coupled to the primary printer by a non-network interface unit. The primary printer routes data received from the network connection system to the primary printer or to the secondary printers for printing, making the secondary printers appear to a user of the network device to be directly connected to the network connection system.
