can I use this to make my printer wireless?

That's a very good question, my guess is no, because I think you have to install drivers to make it work, but it might also depend on the printer? Might be worth some googling around

No you will have to buy a wirless printer This will only work for a PC or Laptop

Larry,I made my Dell 3100cn(network) color laser printer wireless by buyingthe ASUS RT-n1 3U Router. ($199 on Amazon). It's not a cheap solution, but it works. You have to make sure you set it up in the router mode rather than as anaccess point or repeater.Y0ur printer should be a network printer, connected to the ASUS router with a short CAT 5 cable. Of course, yes you will still also need a wireless adapter for your computer to thencommunicatr with the ASUS router.

I agree with Cheryl. You will have to purchase a wireless printer because this adapter must have drivers installed.

I was able to. Simply Connecting your computer to this device will allow you to send to your wireless printer.

The wireless printer that I have, did not need anything cord connected to my computer. Sorrry do not know if that cord will work.

I do not know. I used a Windows based OS and I only used it to hook up my printer to my router.

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

Yes a wired network printer can work wireless with this gadget. The manual is not good at all so you should have some basic knowledge of networks and IP configuration.

Yes you can use both wired and wireless at the same time with this printer.I initially set it up via USB to a win7 machine and subsequently to 2 wireless win 7's and an XP machine using a wireless adapter.It works flawlessly, but won't wake on LAN, so you have to make sure it is on. Extend the time before "auto off" for best results.

This printer is not a wireless printer. It can only be hooked up using a USB cable.

Yes you can. Just like a laptop, for example, you may connect a USB printer (keep in mind there is only 1 USB port) or add a wireless printer.

I am not positive, but I believe that you can. I've been using mine via ethernet network. It's working perfectly. Dreading buying the toners, but otherwise love this machine to death. Would be interested to hear if you get the wireless going.

I can't say for sure but this model has been out for awhile now. It is not wireless. Maybe you can connect it directly as it does have ports for connecting divices and also SD cards. Somebody else would probably help you better than I. Sorry, I only use it as a normal printer connected to my tower home PC.

I doubt, I think you can go through this wireless router with the wireless printer but not the wires printer.

This printer is not a wireless printer. You have to connect it directly to a router (with Ethernet cable) and the router can send out the wireless signal.

Can't tell you for sure. But I do have it set up to print wireless from my computer.

You sure can. I'm using mine to connect to a hub on the other side of the room. I keep my printer connected to the hub.

Yes you can! If you ever want to upgrade to a wireless printer, WI-fi is very easy to set up with this computer and a router. Also, this is an awesome computer!!!

I believe you can...would need to connect to the printer with usb cable...I connected the printer to a laptop to down load up dates when setting things up, but we use it wi-fi since more than one person uses it...
