| Good evening all,
|
| I have a friend that I was able to set up his Compaq laptop to get
Internet
| connectivity using a Linksys WRT300N router.  The router is hooked up to a
| DSL modem, and there is *no* other computer using the modem--just the
| Compaq.  He's very happy with the set-up, and has coverage anywhere in the
| house.
|
| Here's where I'm lost.  He has an HP PSC2400 Photosmart all-in-one
printer,
| fax, copier, that *NORMALLY* would hook up to his laptop via USB cable.
|
| Is there any way that he can set up his all-in-one printer to print
| wirelessly also?  I would think he could, but maybe with additional
| hardware.  I also have no idea how I would configure his XP Pro OS to do
| this, like what settings might have to be changed, and *where* those
| settings lie.
|
| I'm sorry for being so long winded, and probably asking a stupid question
to
| begin with.

| Hi
| The printer can be converted to a Wireless Network printer by buying USB
| Wireless Primer server Card.
| http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127074
| However it would Not function any more as AIO only basic printing would
work
| through the Network.
