Yes. I had mine for the desktop. I have a router and was able to use my wireless printer.

You can connect a desktop computer. But buy a different printer, this one sucks.

you can try a usb to ethernet converted, but since your usb ports will barely work on this laptop, it probably won't work.

yes, you can use CAT5 for network printing or printer cable to laptop/PC usb

No you do not need the ethernet cable, everything is wireless with the exception of faxing in which you will need a phone line going the back of this printer. Hope this help

I dont think that will work. It will serve you better to just connect the printer to one computer and setup a network for printer so that multiple computers on your network can print from it.

Yes. I have a desktop that stays hardwired to the printer and can simultaneously print wirelessly from my laptop.

Nope unfortunately ethernet cable isnt up to spec to carry SDI signal. Wont work.

No. The wireless printer is not a hotspot or access point that will broadcast a wireless signal that will allow your computer that has the Belkin adapter to connect wirelessly.

If you are highly tech-savvy you might be able to. You can contact the vendor for help. I ran Ethernet cables for both of mine because we had trouble getting a wireless connection to work reliably.

Hi. You get a USB to Ethernet adaptor with it, and can buy USB to rj45 very cheap.

If you lack a wireless router you can connect the printer to your computer with a USB cable, or to a wired network with an Ethernet cable. And, of course, it supports the earlier wireless "B" and "G" standards if you have an older wireless router which doesn't support "N".

no its a wired lan adapter. If you want a wireless connector search for Edimax on amazon.

Yes for sure. If your desktop is not wireless Davy you can always use an Ethernet cable

Yes, if you configure it properly. Sounds like you would use the 'client' mode which makes the D-Link act as a wireless connection point for a wired Ethernet device.

I plugged my printer into one of the wired jacks on my router using a network cable. It works perfectly as a shared printer on my wireless network.
