Can I make my connection wireless? (PC & Printer)

[DeonH]

Hi there.

My PC and HP Printer are currently connected via USB cable. Is it possible to "convert" it to some bluetooth connection?

What printer are you using?

I've got the HP Photosmart C7283 and it allows Bluetooth connections, provided you have a dongle, but it only allows photo prints(=photo paper). Just my what I've experience with the bluetooth functionality.

wifi? you can get wifi devices that let you plug up to 4 printers into them, and share them over wifi. works with scanners too (some). Works with samsung, and HP and lexmark but my epson photo printer doesnt like it.

I doubt it, that thing only has USB connectivity and no optional expansion slot.

You could look into a USB print server.
