No you can't use WiFi. You have to go buy a cable at an electronics store or computer section in a big store.

The quick answer is no it doesn't have to be connected to the internet .There are many way to use this printer. One if the nice things and I would guess this is more your question does it have to be connected to a WiFi network. I really like this printer. It prints beautiful photos.

Although I connect mine wirelessly, there is a port on back of the printer to hardwire connect via USB directly to your computer, otherwise you must have a wireless router.

You don't need a cable to connect wirelessly. If you download the software drivers from the Epson website it will show you step by step how to connect wirelessly. I would download the latest version. You also have to use the printer while connecting wirelessly. The downloaded online software has instructions will show you how step by step to do this.

You may someday get wifi, always good to have. I don't think you will find a printer as good as this without wifi for the price.

For the data portion this printer can use a USB cable and be connected directly to a computer. You still however need to use the enclosed power adapter to power the unit.

Seriously, I couldn't find a lot of info on this printer. I do know it's a wireless printer, as so many are these days, but I'm pretty sure it is also a USB printer. Look at your printer, or check the manual. HP usually has information available on the web, in my opinion they are the best computer maker out there as far as product and support. If you decide you need a cable then by all means get the Mediabridge cable, it's a great cable at a great price and available through Amazon.

There is a printer USB slot to hook up directly to your computer (the printer cable is not included). There is not a regular USB, or any other, slot to connect directly to the internet however.

Yes, but not wirelessly. I spent a lot of time looking up what I was doing wrong that it wouldn't connect. It seems that Apple doesn't use the WPS(?) protocol for wireless printing, and this printer does not use generic WiFi. (If I'm wrong, please, someone let me know because I would like to have this not be connected via USB cable!) For the price, and the print quality, using a cable was not a deal breaker, though.

It's a network capable printer. You can use an Ethernet cable to connect it to your router. Any computer connected to your router, whether by Ethernet cable or wirelessly using wifi, can install and use this printer. So if your laptop connects wirelessly to the internet using your router, your laptop can add this printer and then use it wirelessly. You can also connect the printer directly to your computer using an Ethernet cable.

No. This is a wired printer. You must have a USB printer cable in order to connect this machine to your computer.

Scott M. is correct. The printer does not have wireless capability. But if you have a router for a home network, connect the printer to a port on the router with an Ethernet cable. Then every device that can talk to the router can see and use the printer. In our house we have three laptops and an iPad all using the printer without difficulty.

If the box has no Bluetooth listing, the technology is not supported with the printer. You cannot do WiFi because no adapter is included. No printers of this kind supply one, as you often find the same disappointment expecting to find an HDMI cable with your new digital camera. Buying an accessory kit through a third-party is an excellent option, given you often pay rather little extra for the bundle.

Avoid. The printer is terrible. Wifi forgets connections. Drivers need to be reinstalled every time you print because the stop working. Look for any other device. This one has cost me hours and hours of work as well as the expense of laying a cabled link just to get some response our of the device
