Does this printer come with all the necessary cords mto hook up to a computer, or to print wirelessly from several computers?

I don't remember if it had a USB cable, because I never needed it. I used the Ethernet jack and have shared among several computers. It does not have wireless.

The printer does not come with any cords. A standard USB cord is all you need to hook it up. I have not tried to connect wirelessly. The printer is very fast and the print quality is exceptional.

No. The printer works just fine with USB cord that is included, and it works well in the wireless mode, too.

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

EDIT: This applies to the A909G wireless version only. It contains its own WAP. No, you do not need a cable at all. It connects to the network via WiFi. You will need a wireless router, but no physical connection between router and printer or PC and printer required. The only physical connection required is the router to the computer that acts as the gateway. My laptop is on my wireless network as well as my desktop-gateway. Once I installed the software on my laptop, it prints from there just as well. One problem I had was the unit kept dropping the wifi connection. I played around and found that if I disable the PowerSave mode on the Printer, the connection stays up indefinitely

Yes. The only cord it comes with is the connection between the drawer & the printer. This is all you need since the printer provides the power.

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.

If you have a network set up, any computer hooked up to that can print to it w/out bring directly connected. It's been a while since I've used this printer, but I don't think it's truly wireless. (It is a great printer though, I bought several for work.)

No, you need to have a wireless router for the printer to work via wireless.

In my case, yes. To hook up to my wireless network, the directions state to use a usb cord temporarily to configure your computer to the printer. It is in odd place on the inside of the machine. So if you will always use usb cord for wired use, check out the specs on brother website. http://www.brother-usa.com/VirData/Content/en-US%5CMFC%5CConsumer%5CQuickSetupGuide%5CQSG_MFC_J825DW_J835DW_EN_5046.PDF On page 28 it shows how to do for wireless networking.

Sure thing! You don't have to go wireless. Just hook straight up to your computer. Actually easier set up. Love my little printer..so quick! :-)

This pic on left is a power cord. Most printers come with power cords and USB cable. Some printers come without USB cable, about 20.00 . I've never seen printer without power cord.

Yes, you need to buy a printer cord with a USB on one end so that it will connect to your computer.

You can print from both options WiFi or USB cable.... but I do believe on setup it does ask you to use USB cable...

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".

while a router will allow the printer to work in wireless mode, you can connect it to your computer with a USB cable

I agree with what someone else pointed out (the printer is NOT Ethernet capable). I suspect that the seller has confused this Brother with a different model. The printer should come with a power cord--but those are a dime-a-dozen, as all computer equipment that plugs into an AC outlet directly (without using a power supply) has the same kind of cord, which you can buy online or even locally for a few dollars. But why don't you ask the seller? The printer does come (when new) with a power cord. It does NOT, however, come with a USB cord which is what you will need to connect it to a computer.
