Networking My Printer

[+chorpeac MVC]

I currently have a wireless network and a Samsung laser printer. The printer is hooked up to a computer, and this computer has to be on if I want to print. Well what products do you recommend for networking the printer?

It connects via a USB port.

My goal is to be able to buy something small that hooks the printer to the network wirelessly or wired, so I don't have to always have a specific computer on to print.

What do you recommend?

You'll need a print server if you want to make it available on the network.

If you don't have a parallel port printer (which by the sounds of things you don't), then you'll need something like one of these:

DLink DP-301u

Dlink DP-311u (Wireless)

You could try some of the other manufacturers too (I don't think Netgear do any).

guys... whomsoever buys plastic parts shows they don't care about quality...

personally, with the warranty, support, and quality i go w/ Netgear.

So a wireless is going to be over a $100 unless I get the IOGear.... That's what I have found so far.
