I'm awaiting a fairly decent laptop (Dell inspiron 1720) I am going to use it to replace my home desktop in order to save space in the shoebox in which we live. My question is will it be possible to (cheaply) make my HP photosmart printer wireless via bluetooth or other means or can I use a wireless broadband router to send print stuff to the printer ! (Told you it was a thick question.)
Thanks

unless the printer is able to be put on a network . If so you can get a wi fi adapter for it or plug it into a wi fi access point that connects to the main router. . The printer manual will state if the printer can be set up on a network.Nudge nudge, Wink wink, Say No More!0

If your printer is near your router then you could get a printer server and plug it into the router.0
