I brought a Cannon printer that has a USB 2.0 port. I would like to connect it to my home (wireless) ethernet through a USB 2.0 to Ethernet converter, so I may be able to print documents elsewhere.
Answer:
Yes its possible. Try to check Wireless Print Server from Linksys.
Try to check Amazon : http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-WPS54GU2-W…
Or check Linksys Directly: http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite…
Answer:
I dont know how well that would work.
although, you could hook you printer directly up to your router (most have usb ports) if they are in the same room
Answer:
connect the usb printer to a computer that is connected to the network already.
i dont think that usb to ethernet conversion would work correctly if the printer does not have print server functionality or if your router does not have print server functionality and you dont wish to go out and buy such a router.
however i guess theres no harm in trying - i just dont think it would work.
Answer:
the printer should work. the USB to ethernet converter should have a internal NIC which will have a MAC Address on it. if that is the case then you should have no problems printers. u may lose some features but printing will work properly,
