Hi,
my wife and I are expecting a new baby
This means we have to are going to change the 'computer room' into a bedroom for the new baby and relocate the PC to the dinning room. The printer we have is a large three in one printer (printer, photocopier, scanner); a Canon MPC600, and we are looking to have it on the other side of the dinning room from the PC (an ageing Dell dimension 8200).
We currently have wireless broadband set up. What is the best way for the PC to be able to use the printer?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.

Many thanks Browntoa; it looks like it the type of thing that I need.
But do you think I should be worried about the review on Amazon with this saying that "Canon's Print Manager utility doesn't work with it"?0 -
Looking closer at the link below, I can see that my printer, the Canano MPC600 is not compatible
