    Does anyone know how to use a printer through a network wirelessly?

    I am using a router for my internet and the printer is in another room. I want it to be like what you get in buissnesses and that and in some schools.

    Any ideas

    You have to make sure that the PC which is wired directly to the printer is setup to allow File/Printer Sharing. Then, I believe, its just a case of searching for the printer across the network to pick it up.

    If you had the printer on the wireless router, wired onto it, then you could share it wirelessly... never thought about it tho...
