Yes, it can. I envy you have this model. I enjoyed mine except for the poor quality of the top feed tray. When I had to replace my printer I found it was no longer availability so I had to choose another model.

I just opened the box and there is a USB cable about 36" long. Directions say that "The USB cable may be used during the wireless settings."

No Wireless... old school Cat-5 cable. You can put a USB adapter, right? That technology would not be needed in a corporate environment...

unfortunately no, but I understand you can get a wireless adapter and configure it through the USB port.

You Are correct. I bought a USB wireless adaptor. The performance of this thing is well worth that little inconvenience. Very fast!

Just USB cable but it works all good. Need a Computer or lap top with Windows 7 or above and 2.0 GHZ.

It's not wireless. I have this computer and I read the description of it and it didn't say wireless but I didn't need it

The model I bought is wired usb, but I bet they have a wireless version "somewhere".

Yes, it can connect through a standard Ethernet wired connection, WiFi and USB.

It is wireless and will scan to any computer you setup but the computer does have to be on, it does not have to be connected via the USB cable.

You have to use the cable supplied...it isn't wireless. The cable supplied has different connectors on each end.

Not by itself, you will need to buy a wireless network adapter. You can find one for 20 or 30 bucks on amazon, or a walmart, or staples. Just plug it into the usb drive and your all set. I am currently using a Lynksys AE2500.

It is not wireless so you will see the cables you choose to use to connect to the computer but it should work just fine. Keep in mind that it is 3 1/2 feet long too.

No. This is an ethernet to USB device, and not at all wireless. Ethernet will use a standard CAT5 cable.

It's not "wireless" if that's what you are asking. It has the USB cable to plug into the computer & the cord to plug into a wall outlet

Haven't tried. USB wireless receiver works fine and is nearly invisible, though.

No it is not wireless, and everything about this computer sucks! Don't make this mistake I did, do not buy it.
