Default WIRELESS NETWORKING printer router



i have a hp 8150; one desktop and a laptop. i am already networked with a
wirless router. I now want to set up a wireless printer router so my laptop
can access the printer. the hp 8150 has a usb port in front for bluetooth so
i assume it will also serve the purpose of connecting a usb wireless printer
router. however, it seems that everytime i look for articles or blogs on this
topic someone is having a problem with printer and wireless print router
compatability. so how do you know before purchase, if all hardware is
compatable, unless you can find someone with the same setup. ie i want to use
a belkin printer router but have no idea if it will be compatable. i cannot
find any hp 8xxx series printers listed as compatable or not on the belkin
website.
Also, other than the printer router will i need any other hardware?

Instead of getting a new router, you could just buy a USB print server. If
your current router and the printer are near each other, you would connect
the print server to the printer and the router and it becomes another node
on your network

Hit that enter key to quick...

there is also an external USB based HP Jetdirect 380x 802.11b Wireless Print Server
http://www.superwarehouse.com/HP_Jet...6061A/p/119865

{ Personally, I would go internal, but I would also go wired, not wireless }
