Hi there,

Forgive my question as i'm sure its very easy!!

I have a pc in the study with a laser printer 2 laptops and another desktop. How is it possible for me to use the printer via the pc in the study wirelessly?

All the computers are wireless at the moment.

I assume the printer is local to one of the PC's. You can share the printer on that PC then everyone can access it via share. One of the drawbacks is that the PC directly connected to the printer must be on in order to print.

What make and model is it, If it is a more modern printer, look on the back and see if there is an ethernet port, if so, just plug it into your router, there is no need for a computer as it will have its own print servert (Y)
