Epson printer XP640 connection to PC?

Hi all,


I have on order an XP640 printer. My PC is not WIFI enabled however it is connected to a BT Hub via Ethernet. My BT Hub is WIFI enabled - will the PC talk to the XP640 via the BT hub.? The printer will be more than 5m away from the PC so I cannot use a USB2 link.


Mike.

    Yes, it will work fine ..
    The wireless printer sits on your network and can be accessed by any other device on the network.


    The printer doesnt connect directly via wireless to the computer.


    You may need to temporarily plug in the printer to the PC via USB just to set it up however
