How to install a wireless printer on laptop

To install a wireless printer on your laptop you should have a laptop that is wireless enabled. Without that it is not possible to connect your laptop to your wireless printer. Printers with wireless capability inbuilt are available in the market now. If you are not having a printer that has wireless capability, it is also possible to connect that wirelessly to your laptop if you add a wireless print server that is available separately.

Your wireless printer or the wireless print server would be assigned an IP address and this IP address should be made available and accessible from your laptop. However it is necessary to install the wireless printer s drivers that come along with your purchase in to your laptop. There is no need of a router to connect to this wireless printer. All you need to do is to create an ad-hoc network between your laptop and the wireless printer or the wireless print server. If you don’t know how to create an ad-hoc network you can very well refer to the many articles available on the Microsoft website.
