Printer USB to RJ45

andyp · 28-12-2008, 9:23 AM

Anyone know if it's possible to connect a USB printer to my Linksys router / AP via RJ45 connections? I know there are cheap USB / RJ45 adapters available, but will they work in this situation? Don't want to run to the expense of going to a proper wireless printer server.

Thanks.

No it won't work. You need drivers for the USB/RJ45 LAN adaptor to work which can't be installed on your printer.

No that wont work m8

print server would be the only option for this

there not so expensive anymore tho

try play.com they seem to have quite a few reasonably priced now days
