HP 7130 printer

Is there an adapter I can use to connect the printer USB port to a university Ethernet which will not allow a wireless connection?

Hi! @jby8844, Welcome to HP forums.

 

I understand you would like to know if there is a USB to ethernet adapter to connect your printer.

 

Don't worry I'm here to help you out.

 

I have checked the specifications and you can try using an HP USB to ethernet adapter on the printer and check if it helps.

 

HP USB-C to RJ45 Adapter

 

You can purchase the part from HP shopping using this link. Click Here

 

Note: The USB to ethernet adapter is mostly used on notebooks we cannot guarantee the functionality on printers.

 

 

Hope this answers your query!

Have a great day! 🙂

I have checked the printer but it has a usb type b port not a usb - c

 

I have ordered a female usb type a to rj45 male adapter and will see if this works. 

 

Thanks for looking.
