Thread: Can I WiFi an all in one printer on to a network

  1. #1

    Default Can I WiFi an all in one printer on to a network

    I have an all in one printer scanner card reader (HP 2575 with USB port) that’s connected through an Ethernet cable to a wifi router for my home network. Can I connect the printer to the router wirelessly? Removing the need for the cable.

    TIA
    Matt

    I don't think it is possible to do that with this model printer as it only has USB/Ethernet connections on the back.

    Why do you want to remove the Ethernet cable? Ethernet is the most reliable way of connecting the printer to the network, We have a few wireless ones in work and thay are nothing but a pain in the back side.

    Never mind.

    Anyway, the answer to the question is yes. There are numerous plug-in dongles available which give wireless connectivity to ordinary printers.

    Here is just one example:
