How to Set Up a Wireless Printer Connection
Wireless printing can be extremely useful. Printers that can be networked come
with either a network adapter (which can be simply directly plugged into a
wireless router), or a wireless adapter (in which case a router is not essential if
you are prepared to use ad-hoc mode). Here's how to do it.
Wireless Method
Make sure your printer has wireless network adapters or a wireless router.
Power on the printer and wireless router.
Configure the printer to connect the wireless router.
Enable the DHCP option on the printer. Obtain the IP address automatically.
Configure the DHCP server of wireless router. Again, assign the IP address automatically.
Verify connectivity. Try doing some test prints. If it doesn't work, check the IP addresses.
Network Method
Assign the printer to a wireless network. Go to “Start” and click on “Devices and Printers.”
Click on “Add a printer”.
