Sometimes I need to reboot from the modem and reset the router, turn off and on the computer at the same time in order for the wireless oriented signal to match.

No but I have completely given up on getting this to print wirelessly. It connects when you set it up, then it doesn't recognize it. That part of this printer is useless.

No, as it come in the box it is not. They (Kodak) do make a proprietary USB to WiFi adaptor to give it wireless capabilities.... I tossed the printer before I ever got it thought.

As it turns out, I own a small external USB DVD drive. I have 3 different printers, 2 HP and 1 Canon, all of which are WIFI connected with my wireless router. By using my USB attached external DVD drive I was able to install each of my printers from the CD that came with each printer and they are working perfectly. If you don't have an external DVD drive, then most printer websites contain install packages for downloading and install. Hope this helps. Byron

Not directly. You can use the wireless through a network that is hooked up to it. You would need the x451dw which is wireless directly to/from the printer.

I've had this printer for a long time. I can't remember whether or not it came with a USB cord. On the other hand, I didn't just have spare USB cords just sitting around and still don't, so I suspect it came in the package.

If you purchase the optional blue tooth dongle, you can print wirelessly from blue tooth devices.

This printer does have a USB port on the lower left front of the printer. I assume it is there for a purpose. I have never used it as the printer works excellently with a wireless connection to my laptop. Hope this helps. You may want to contact HP directly or a local store that carries the printer.

I can print with a usb from my mac. Wireless still doesn't work after spending hours with customer care.

Ditto to all of the above. I bought this device because it had the features I wanted and wireless connectivity. Every time I want to print I either have to reconnect to the wireless access point or move the printer closer to my PC so I can connect the USB cable. I'd just buy a longer cable but haven't gotten around to it. I'm afraid if I go look for a cable I'll end up buying a different printer.

Yes there is. Don't bother buying the expensive HP wireless print G print servers. I went thru a few of them as they would fail after about a year. I made that mistake a couple times before I wised up. Now I'm using the TP-LINK TL-WPS510U and have had no issues whatsoever with it. Setup was straight-forward. If you are still using this printer, then I'd recommend the TP-LINK wireless print server.

If you lack a wireless router you can connect the printer to your computer with a USB cable, or to a wired network with an Ethernet cable. And, of course, it supports the earlier wireless "B" and "G" standards if you have an older wireless router which doesn't support "N".

You can print from both options WiFi or USB cable.... but I do believe on setup it does ask you to use USB cable...

The dongle has universal support for all Bluetooth devices. The printer should be compatible with little to no issues.

This printer is not a wireless printer. It can only be hooked up using a USB cable.

I hooked this printer up directly to my wireless network router. That way, I can print from any computer or device on my network, wired or wireless. You do not need to buy any additional equipment to do this - if you already have a wireless router. The printer ethernet cable plugs in directly to your router. Connecting it to your router also makes it easier to find/add the printer from various devices. Works great !

I agree with Cheryl. You will have to purchase a wireless printer because this adapter must have drivers installed.
