Printer connection

[kopi]

Is it possible to connect computer from long distance to home computer? I mean like connecting laptop to home computer. Does it depend on printer(with access to wireless internet)?

You can usually print over vpn and similar if you have a network printer. The real question becomes why would you want a physical document that is physically distant from you.

It's usually easier to email yourself whatever relevant content you need and then print when you're back home if you don't already have all of the dependencies set up.

It's not always for the person who clicks print

The easiest way is to get an HP or similar printer that uses cloud printing, with that you email a file to the email address of your printer, and it prints out anywhere with internet access.

If you want to aces your computer remotely, check out Teamviewer, RDP or UltraVNC. Although, UltraVNC is meant more for local use, you could port forward.

Sounds like they just want to print remotely.
