hp notebook 15-n276sa
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My hp notebook is about 5 years old but is good.  I currently have a wireless connection to the internet.

Am I able to connect wirelessly to a wireless printer, or is a cable the only solution ?  My current printer is getting on a bit ( as am I ), but I would change it if my notebook  is able to connect wirelessly.

Thanks for any help and info

Hi,

Yes you will be able to connect wirelessly to the printer as long as the printer has wifi capability.

 

The best idea is to set up the printer (when installing) on the local network you are on (connect printer wirelessly to the router. This way you can print from all the devices on your local network (cellphones. notebooks etc...)

But you can also connect directy to the printer via wifi by choosing the printer in the available wifi networks.

 

In short. Yes, you can 😀

 

Hope it helps,

David
