Is it that it will allow you to send a print message to your desktop printer at home from wherever you may be? (I'd like that!)

What MumboVonJumbo said is correct, but there's a little more to it. Normally a printer would connect to a computer and be used as a "shared resource" for other computeres to print. If you have a router with a Print Server on the other hand, your printer will be connected to your router instead. The router will act as the server and handle all the printing requests (not your computer). This is really beneficial because your computer doesn't have to be on all the time in order for the printer to work.

The Bluetooth hub gets powered from your USB slot, and they're 50 bucks.\n\nI suggest you don't get one as sending a file wth pictures to your printer (Roughly 500 kb for watermark) is going to receive it at dial-up speed. Which is about 8 kbps so around a minute to send your stuff.\n\nHere's the thing though, if your mouse is not bluetooth ready then bluetooth won't work, same with all your other stuff.

for this purpose you will need an additional software such as SCV Fax, super fax. this will install a printer in the menu.. a fax printer... click print and select fax printer.. and then go on as the instructions suggest..\n\nvoila!!!!!

No need, I assume you are using windows xp, simply share your printer and publish it to the network, install the printer drivers on your brothers computer and have him install your printer on his as a network printer.\nMuch easier than it sounds, go to windows help - printer sharing.

The only way to do this is to have  wireless router that the desktop is connected to. That way if your laptop is wireless(most of them are now), you can print from the laptop to the desktop's printer with no problem. I do it all the time. \n\nThomas\nwww.yourhomestudio.com\n\nFree Home Studio Newsletter  - addme@yourhomestudio.com

WOULD THAT BE PERSONAL COMMUNICATIONS?

Its fine to check them. Remote assistance and remote desktop would only really be used if you were part of an intranet. They are a security hazzard! And if your printer isnt set to be shared anyway then no need to worry about that one.\n\nI have remote desktop and all terminal services disabled entirely from my PC as they are useless to the vast majority of users. As are a lot of other Windows functions that tend to start up in the background.\n\n\n\nLeave them checked. It wont make a difference if your not using them. But I'm suggesting you disable Terminal services if you dont use them as it just wastes resources!

yes you can, try this link, I've done it in my hometown and it works just like they say it does....and it's free

It certainly does.  In Ubuntu and Knoppix, you have 3 options for printers - SMB, 'windows printer' and a special protocol for HP network printers.\n\nAs for file sharing, if you have sharing enabled on the target PC, you can access it from the linux machine by simply adding the target PC's internal IP as a network place.

Have you got the latest drivers installed for your printer ? Also when you go to print are you selecting your printer or is it set by default and it just selects it anyway ? Just a few thoughts is all :)

• Click Start and then click Control Panel. \n \n• Click Printers and Other Hardware, and then click Printers and Faxes. \n \n• In the Printers and Faxes folder, I clicked the printer's icon and, in the tasks pane, I clicked Share This Printer. \n \n• I opened the printer's Properties dialog box, and clicked on the Sharing tab. \n \n• I clicked Share Name, and then clicked OK. \n \n\nThat's it—the printer was immediately available for other computers to use.\n\nNow that I had a network printer, I was ready to connect to it and print from other computers on the network.\n\nTo connect to the printer\n\n• I opened Control Panel, and clicked Printers and Other Hardware. \n \n• I clicked Add a Printer. \n \n• Instead of adding a local printer, though, I clicked Printer Connection and then browsed the network for the printer. \n \n\nThe whole process took less than a minute before I was printing to the network printer as though it was connected to the computer

try searching for some network printer devices, either you can get a network attatched printer server box whch converts a network rj45 to a usb or paralell, or a direct network printer. my office has one.

Definately. I would ask someone more proffessional but I know there has to be a way of doing it when you open the print menu. (that's on windows)

Yes a virus can, spyware.... if your on a network (Wireless)  and your printer is on the wireless network someone nearby can do it. Try some free spyware software to get rid of spyware maybe.
