I tip someone recently told me as I was at Circuit City about to buy a printer server as that I could turn one of my PC's into a printer server. This was great advice and kept me from buying the more expensive WIFI printer.

Although it can be a bit tricky, all you need is a new or old discarded PC that is hooked up wifi ready and can hook up to your printer. Leave this PC on whenever you want to print and simply set up a network and install the printer drivers and share the printer over the network. I know its easier said than done - but it works great for me.

There are a few great tutorials on the net - just google how to set up a PC as a printer server. It will even install the drivers over your wifi network to any new PCs that need to print.

Oh wow! brilliant! If I win the HDX Dragon, this would be perfect for me and my sister, how strong does the wifi have to be? I usually get 1 bar for internet when using wifi and the modem is about 1 meter away from the computer :S

Thanks for the post

My old school used to use cables connected and merged into the printer. That was about 4 years ago though.

that would be a lot of cable and i dont think there would be enough ports on the printer.

as in, they merged them and then into one printer came the one cord, it took forever before we could close the printing dialogue box. I know, I went to the school lol

that would be heck of a hard thing to do for the school's computer technician

not really, it's easier than it sounds, you get the cords and merge them so it puts the print jobs in line and outputs them through one outputed cord.

On the old side of my school they still use cables, not kidding!
I'm glad I don't get lessons there anymore, old computers running with Windows 95 and 98.
