Nowadays printers are coming with inbuilt network facilities using Ethernet or through Wi-Fi, to print documents from any system in the home network. But if you are using the old USB type printers you no need to worry, as you could change your wired printers into wireless printer through print servers.
Wireless printers are nothing but a small device which looks similar to your internet router. It has a USB port to connect your wired printer. Once the connection is given, then it will be available in all other systems connected in the wireless network.
Here is the list of some popular print servers:
Netgear WGPS606 – This device can perform the functions of both print server and wired router. We can connect two printers to wireless network and share to four different computers through wired connection if they are not fitted with wireless network. The cost of this device is around $60
Linksys Print Server – We can connect our printers through USB using an Ethernet cable or Wireless –G. The print function works like any other print server but for scanning or copying, a user can request exclusive use of that function until his task is complete. This device is priced at around $80.
HP Wireless Kit –the HP Wireless Printing Kit could be a good choice as it integrates fully with all features of our printer, including print, scan, and fax. It has a USB to make connection with computer for wireless printing. It work only in Windows platform and costs around $75
For those who don’t have wireless network they can go in for Bluetooth adapter. The only drawback is the range will be limited.
