will this work if I connect this to a non-wireless usb printer? Thanks

I doubt it will, but I would not recommend this product as it has connection problems and continues to go off line, dropping your connection. It's very frustrating.

Yes. at least I connect to my Canon MG5400 wireless printer. I honestly dont know about other printers but commonly every laptop or tablet with wireless function will connect to wireless printers. Since the system is Win 8, you can install corresponding drive software with the printer, I dont think this is a problem. However I will try to connect to another printer. If it cannot connect, I will let you know shortly. Thanks for asking.

Sorry, I can't answer that question for you. The model print server that I bought (TP-LINK TL-PS110P) is for a parallel port on the printer and not a USB. The USB print server (TP-LINK TL-PS110U) will connect to a USB connected printer, but requires a Ethernet cable to connect the router to the print server. For wireless USB printer server order model (TP-LINK TL-WPS510U) Please note the different model numbers

Donna, I had many problems making it work with anything wireless. I'd go through long, involved resetting the device with HP support and it would work for a day or so then stop. Repeat the process for another days use. I finally gave up and just use it as a USB printer. When the expensive ink cartridges run out, I'm throwing it in the recycling. Without a doubt that will be its finest moment.

One added note: I'm using a Hawking HMPS2U 4 port USB Hub and it works outstanding. Just remember to get everything working direct first. Then when you install the USB Hub, it'll recognize all the printers you want wireless via the USB Hub.

Hi D. Ambrose,If you have a wireless printer, you can connect it to it as you would any other wireless device and print. If it's not a wireless printer, then no. We hope this helps!

This device will not connect your USB printer to your network. Look for a "USB print server".

You need a router with USB port and printer capable or USB printer to Wifi adapter.Read http://www.ricksdailytips.com/convert-usb-printer-to-wireless/

It should work, if both the printer and the devices are connected to the hotspot device.

I don't know what type of printer you have but I had to plug mine into my computer using this cord so it can "find it" then I removed the cord as it is wireless. Read your printer directions.

The bluetooth adaptor BU-30 for the printer looks to be proprietary. I doubt this would work if you plugged it into the printer port.

I used an HP printer with a USB connect. The computer found and loaded the drivers, no problem. I just had to go into the control panel and change the default printer.

Honestly, I can't say if it will, however if your printer is Bluetooth compatible, it probably might. When I looked for it, I saw that it was compatible with my printer and my printer is Bluetooth compatible. I also had to purchase a dongle (transmitter). It really only works at about 30 linear feet (unobstructed). It's difficult to print around corners. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I purchased a usb extension cable because my printer is in a room and this way I can extend my transmissions (depending where I sit) to my living room (I have a lap top). I hope any part of this helps or you can get some idea of what you want to do. Honestly, I can't say if it will, however if your printer is Bluetooth compatible, it probably might.

I have printed from a thumb drive in the USB port just fine. I just turned off wireless connection on my laptop and connected laptop through USB cable. Got error message (insert USB thumb drive). So, No, I don't think it will work. put your file(s) on USB drive if you can't print wirelessly.
