[quote kap]Thanks for the tip to price-match :-)
Now we don't have ABS nor AE; we have a LinkSys wireless router. What will we need to set up a wireless printing for all of our Mac laptops running 10.4.11 and one Windows XP Pro SP3 desktop?
I'd recommend following the instructions in the manual, as it seems to cover nearly every possibility. They suggest using a hard wire connection to do the initial setup. I didn't use the wireless feature at all because I have my AE set for N speed only and didn't want to compromise that by resetting it to accomodate the G speed of the printer. Should I need to access the printer from my G based wireless machines (which run on a separate subnet with their own router), I may set up the wireless for that subnet. Haven't read the whole manual yet to see if I can do that (run both a wired and a wireless setup simultaneously). Alternatively, I could temporarily reset the AE for G acccess on the rare occasions I need to print from G based machines.
