can I use this printer to print from 3 different computers?

Using its built in Wi-Fi connection, I have printed from a Mac, two iPads and an iPhone. I don's see how three compters would not work as well. Hard wiring might be a hastle.

I am using it wirelessly on 2 computers. I think you can use it on 3. To be sure call Epson Tech Support (800) 463-7766, 6 AM to 8 PM, Pacific Time.

If you are wireless, you can have multiple computers,tablets printing from the same computer as long as you have made the wireless connection

Yes you can print from any computer, however each computer must have the Epson XP600 printer software installed on them. The only wireless device I have is my smartphone and I haven't had to print anything from it yet. There is a How-to video on how to setup the printer's wireless connections at "epson.com/support". This is an amazing printer and I highly recommend it.

I would expect you can if each computer has been linked with the printer via the router through wireless mode. If trying to hard-wire connect three different computers you need some type "splitter" box with connections to each computer and then to the computer.Me, I have two different printers (Epson wireless connected, and second older Epson haywire

No, but if the computer it is plugged into is on and running a network, then you can send use the network to print files from any computers/laptops on the home network.

you have to press the appropriate toggle switch to the corresponding computer you want to print from. It does not seem to detect it automatically.

Yes, most printers can be hooked up to the computer via a USB. This motherboard has plenty of usb slots to choose from.

You can operate one printer using two computers. However, you will need to use the provided manual switch to change the printing source computer.

Yes, You can. I am running Mountain Lion , BUT, I asked a Service Tech from Staples to help me do it. He set it up. He also charged me $118.68 which I know you don't want to spend. I doubt that this will help you and I'm sorry. Perhaps a local Mackintosh User's Group can help, or even Brother themselves. The tech I had relied heavily on the directions which came with the printer.Jennifer

It can be used by unlimited computers at once. My main one is printed to by 4 computers a day, by multiple OS types too, here at the shop. The computers themselves can all separately set the "default printer" that they call the default, but there is no default for the printer backwards. The printer only sees the TP Link which is sending it jobs to print, it doesn't really care how they got there or where they came from beyond that.

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.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking. I have it connected where two computers share one printer. You have to press the button on the switch depending on which computer is using the printer at the time. If you are thinking of having two computers using two printers, then I am not sure if it would work. Maybe the vendor who is selling the switch could answer that for you.

Yes ma am... If you need more help let me know what brand printer and I can be specific on the details.. But you can print to just about any printer with this computer.

This is a network printer, so with it connected to your router on your network, it can most definately be hooked up to two computers

We use Macintosh computers for our printer. We have it linked it to our airport which is the router for Macintosh computers. All our computers can then print from anywhere in the house.The HP technical people are helpful. You need to tell them it's an business printer, not a personal home printer. Whatever they can't help you with would involve your network company. The machine is designed for Windows machines first so I would imagine it supports Windows 7 or 8.

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

Of course you can. This printer isn't the best because I say so, it is because of all of its features.

Sorry but this will not connect two computers to one printer. It is used to connect a hard drive etc that needs extra power provided by a second USB port. Connects one device to your computer, and pulls power from two USB ports on that computer..

In theory, yes you can. It operates on a wireless 802.11 connection. Two caveats: 1) some people have reported problems in making wireless connections with this and other HP printers; and 2) you have to setup the wireless connection initially through the USB port, i.e., it has to be connected to your computer to setup the wireless connection.

This device is designed to work with two computers and one printer. When using this device you need to install a driver on both computers. IOGEAR makes USB print servers and that maybe a better way to go for you. You could network the printers and others could use the printers also. Just make sure the product will work with multifunction printers. Good luck.
