I would like to know, if it's possible, the minimum bandwidth required (upload and download) for this printer to work via wi-fi since I want to setup my wi-fi connection to limit the bandwidth available for the printer since it slows down my wi-fi web browsing. Thank you.

There is no spec for this.  Suggest you play with your router to see what works for you.

Printers are the slowest device on your network.   Shouldn't have to do anything.  Only active when they are printing.

Yes, but (even if I'm not totally sure about that) it seems that my router splits the bandwidth equally, hence the slowdown. So I would like to configure a bandwidth rule for the printer

OK.  No, sorry there is no such setting on your printer.

Not on my printer, I just need the minimum bandwidth needed so I can setup my router. Just this.
