Wireless printer access without USB Print Server?

[Tommon]

How do I go about getting access to my printer using wireless without having to buy a USB Print Server?? I have several USB 802.11b external antenna's, but I know these need to be plugged into a PC. I dont want to have to build/buy a crappy PC to be my print server either. I just want to be able to print from my laptop, too my printer, thru my wireless router.

Sorry if this was answered another time, I paged thru the first 12 or so pages and didnt see what I needed.


Any ideas?

If your printer supports a LAN card, then you could install that and have it directly wired to your router. Otherwise, you would have to buy some sort of print server.

If you don't want to use a PC then your stuck with buying a dedicated print server since it's USB. There might be a workgroup bridge with USB connectivity. Regardless you'll have to buy another device to get the printer on the WLAN.
