I think the device makes wired and wireless computers available to print. I have a wired pc and wireless win8 tablet, my son has a wireless win8 laptop and my wife has a chromebook. All are able to print to my printer using this device

The USB port on this router is intended for a single device. Share your USB printer on the network from one of the machines on your network. OR get a wireless usb printserverOR get a NAS with an integrated media reader and hook it to an ethernet port on the router

I've installed it USB to USB. I don't believe it has wireless capability but will check. I don't know about a wired way. The printer doesn't have a port for a parallel or serial feed from a computer

this is a USB direct to the Comp connected printer, so if you can find a way to see your printers which are installed on your Comp via your phone then yes, but its not a wireless or Network printer.

it can if you connected the 7 port usb unit to the computer you want to use the printer for, if you plug your printer into the 7 port usb unit. this is not a router, it's a usb unit.

This is not wireless. It is plugged into network ethernet plug, however, I do use it wirelessly thru a wireless router. To explain. The printer is wire to the router, and because the router is wired and wireless, I can print from wifi and wired computers. Thus far I am impressed with it. I avoid hp any chance I get. Only problem was my answering machine intefered with fax.

No. Connects either by USB or Ethernet network. By the way, great printer. I only print about 1,000 page a month, but it is well worth the investment. Beautiful color, crisp B&W.; I would buy it again in a minute. Works perfect with aftermarket toner at 80% lower cost than Xerox toner.

Yes as long as the printer have WIFI otherwise you will have to connect the printer through an Ethernet cable.

Yes. Even though this printer is supposed to be WIFI (wireless) it still requires a USB cable for initial install. Plus, if you have issues setting up the WIFI like many others do, then you will need this cable to print your document(s).

No you must connect the printer to an Ethernet connection then it prints over thee network.

My guess is no as the printer is not wireless and uses a USB cable for connection to the computer.

If you get a router that has a USB port, then you can use that. It will become a network printer then.

No. The printer works just fine with USB cord that is included, and it works well in the wireless mode, too.

Sue,You are incorrect. The printer can print USB, but like most printers for the last decade it does not include a USB cable (about $3 on Amazon if you can't find one at your house).Printing by USB is identical to printing wireless and you are not required to email the documents. It is just a different way of connecting the printer. Of course, a wireless connection also allows multiple computers to send print jobs at once. If you are printing strictly by email you are completely lost and confused. I would suggest you ask a more tech sauvy friend of yours to help out. The email "feature" you are referring to is for when you are away from your computer at home and want to email a document to be printed over the internet. Sue,You are incorrect.

Absolutely. Only need to have printer set-up properly on computer. No need to plug it into router.

Absolutely. Depending on your router's features, you should have two options available. 1) Connect it to the router via Ethernet cable, then connect to it through your network. Exactly how you do this depends on your OS. Note that in this case the PC you use to se it up will basically become the "print server" and will need to be turned on if you wish to print from a different PC. 2) Some routers will let you hook up the printer via a USB cable, in which case you will configure the printer via the router's GUI, and the router will be the print server.

while a router will allow the printer to work in wireless mode, you can connect it to your computer with a USB cable
