Answer:
Your printer probably supports USB connectivity, so you know you can use a USB wireless print server. They can be extremely difficult to set up and keep running or they can be a breeze. I've been running a Linksys WPS54G wireless print server for a year and it drove me completely crazy before I finally got it working reliably. I can print to my Brother MFC-7220 but that's about it. The documentation and installation procedure seems simple enough but there are a few tricks to it, none of which are included in the installation manual. http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Product_C2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1114037289494&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&lid=8949439789B02 They've recently released a multifunction print server that should work with your MFC and allow you to print and fax. I'll likely be picking one up myself asap. http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Product_C2&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1165633418611&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&lid=1861139789B10 PAY ATTENTION!!! Since the wireless connection requires a network connection, you'll probably have to download and install the network printer driver as the direct connection driver may not work across the network. (Another thing they don't tell you in the setup instructions.)

you can hook printer into one of the pcs and allow the other pcs on the network to print through it. This would seem to be the most practical as you could use it with your current printer without needing to purchase any additional hardware. how to set up a shared printer http://tech.yahoo.com/gd/setting-up-shared-printers-for-a-home-network/153491 cheers! spacegy4
