Printer Networking (sort of) Question

Does anyone know of an inexpensive device that would allow me to connect my HP 6l laser printer into my wireless network? Or know of any site that might have that kind of information?

 
Several companies make wireless print servers. (look on Amazon.com or just Google it).

The only issue is that they do not support bi-directional printer communications as far as I know. You need to be certain to setup the printer and its driver so that this feature is not expected by the printer.
 
I thought you wanted a wireless print server.
 
bcastner,

Yes that was what I origanally was looking for, but since my hub will accept both wired or wireless connections, I am thinking that this way will work out just as well..

Thanks again for your help :)

Just a note....

Make sure the printer is network compatible...some are not.
