Well I never thought I would be posting on here none car related ;)

Anyways, have recently purchased a new epson sx200 printer that scans and copies too and was thinking of getting a wireless adapter to go with it so that I can plonk the printer in one corner and print/scan etc off my laptop from anywhere in the house.

I have looked into it and have seen a few but there doesnt seem to be any good feedback/reviews on them :confused:

Can anyone advise on this and which wireless adpater would be best for my epson print/fax/scanner (ps I dont want to spend a fortune either).

Cheers

Hi there,
Quick question... What wireless router do you have?

For my broadband/laptop I currently use a netgear wireless modem.

Not bought a wireless adapter for the printer yet !

ok lastley:
1. Is your printer USB?
2. Is your printer anywhere close to your Netgear wireless router?

There is a reason I am asking
