Printer connectivity
I have always had my printer attached through a print server using the
USB cable so I could access the printer through either computers hard wired to the router or wireless through the route Now I am updating the printer. It is an HP 5740 multi function printer and has Ethernet, USB or wireless capability. It will be in the same cabinet as one computer and the ATT gateway. What is the best way to connect it to the system? Continue to connect through the Ethernet? Connect the one computer through the USB, and access it wireless through the other computers? ?????????????????? -- 2017: The year we lean to play the great game of Euchre |

I think the easiest thing to do is just plug the printer's Ethernet into the router shared by all your computers. When you go to "add printer" it's a trivial task and will be done pretty much automatically. |
