The 2008 minting will include "an enlarged" Malta for all to see. However, it will take the best part of 2008 for the new Irish coins [...]

Wireless G All-in-One Print Server

This is a very compact unit (about the size of a pack of 20 cigarettes) and comes supplied with Server software and a plug-in PSU. Unfortunately, the USB cable is not supplied.

Installation of the print server software and configuration of wireless setting took less than ten minutes. Once the printer [...]
