    For a wireless printer that makes a printer wireless, i would go with linksys. Set up i must advise might be a little difficult. For printers, i cant recall a model but it is an HP that is all blue and it is wireless. The cost is under $200. I will try to find a link for you. :)

    That printer was for bluetooth. My Bad, here is a link though for wireless printers: :) http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...mipp=25&uq=Wireless+Printers&_requestid=78875

    and for a printer router that is for a printer that does not have wireless:

    There are of course more though, just that one is an example :)

    Yes as long it has the usb hook up to the printer since it is older. Instead of that wide port you used to plug the printer in. Check that link above. :)
