You bought a Wireless capable printer, but you want to connect it directly to USB via router to make it wireless........ dry.gif

So why did you buy a wireless capable printer in the first place? doh.gif doh.gif

Use the printer front panel to connect to Wi-Fi. After connected, when you install printer driver in PC it will find the printer so long you are connected to the same wifi network.

Aiiiyyoooo.... That model of printer that you have IS NETWORK capable. That means if you connect it to your house Wifi, every PC in your house wifi or cable connected will be able to send printing to it. Once you run the installation it will find the printer in your network. Select it and it will install.

The prerequisite is that the printer has to join your wifi network first before all network capability will work. Use the god damn front panel on the printer to join Wifi. Press the wifi button to enable wifi and then press the menu to connect to wifi with visible SSID and then you can type in your wifi password. You do not need to use USB cable to host from PC or router with that printer model.

TS. This is the answer you want.
Printer got wifi already, means it can handle wireless printing no need cucuk cable la. As long as connected within same WiFi network.
If your phone is on wifi, can direct print also.

He can literally put the printer next to the router and still not use cable and get printing if it was connected to wifi. dry.gif

Dude!!! WPS setup is even more easy and fast!. After you done that, install as usual finding through network and it will list the printer as NETWORK printer. Adoii... dude!!! You 5 years old is it?
