Can i connect my HP laptop wirelessly to my HP Photosmart c4180 printer?

If its a wireless printer yes or if you have wireless network setup, then you can configure the network to accomodate the printer.Can i connect my HP laptop wirelessly to my HP Photosmart c4180 printer?
Yes you can. Even if your printer does not have a


wired or a wireless network attached you can


still access it wirelessly.





For that you will need a small inexpensive device


call a ';usb printer server';. The company iogear


has many.





The way it works is it connects to your printer


on one side by usb and then on your network


(either wired or wireless models exist) on the other.





(Note that you can connect your printer with an ethernet


wire and then still access it from your wireless laptop)Can i connect my HP laptop wirelessly to my HP Photosmart c4180 printer?
I obtained this list from the HP website and your printer Model does not appear on the list: (Its a list of all wireless supported printers)

depends if the printer has wifi, also you may be able to wire your printer to the router and use the laptop to communicate to the printer wirelessly through the router depending on your setup
