Owning a wireless printer unit is all about convenience. It’s like being born again to a whole new world of technology aimed at making your previous printing life easier, more comfortable, without sacrificing efficiency on your part. Do you remember phones before the wireless era? Remember the limitations? Maybe you’ve completely forgotten about it already. If you loved the idea of wireless phones, you are sure to love this brilliant idea as well. It will be a hit.
Home advantages
Why go wireless? First of all you can get rid of all those unnecessary cabling. These printers are independent of cabling. It’s the future of home networking. This means you will have less clutter in your home set up. Finally you have a product with the technology that also allows you to be neat and tidy! Remember those arguments with your spouse about those cables around the house. Arguments about how those cables are making the house look so disorganized and also how those cables are accumulating dust and web. Remember the constant cleaning reminders? Lessen those arguments!
With a wireless printer at home, you are free to move around the house and it will be much easier. You can move your computer and printer around and mix them up a bit with your furniture. It’s an ideal set up in crowded homes where there is limited space. It will be easier to clean the set up space too since no cables are present.
The beauty about it is you can print anything from any room in your house. It provides you with responsiveness and flexibility. You can print out recipes, photos, children’s assignments, confirmation documents, driving directions, emails and projects from any location in the house whether you be in the kitchen, be in the garage, be in the bathroom or dinning table. If you have a friend who comes along with a wireless PC set up, he can easily connect to your printer too with no cables attached!
Office advantages
It’s a lot similar with a home set up. First you eliminate wiring and cabling. In an office set up where there’s network of PC set ups, more cabling are needed. With a wireless printer, not only will you create more office space and get rid of clutter in your office, but it will also save your company a lot of dollars which are invested in cabling and wiring set ups. Since the best way to utilize a single wireless printer is to connect it with a network of computers, it will also lessen the use of switches, adaptors, plugs and connectors. This means possible energy savings for the company. This is a second advantage of using a wireless printer for a small business. Finally, it has the capacity to serve more computers. It facilitates easier access to information for your company.
The price range of a wireless printer ranges from a $100-$400. Some units cost much higher because of added features like copying, scanning and faxing. Some brands available in the market are Lexmark X4580, Dell 968W and HP Office jet Pro L7780. Check the online for other brands and pricing. The age of the wireless printer has finally come and should be readily accepted. There’s no downside. So find one that suits you and enjoy the added benefits.

The kinds of wireless routers may be confusing at first with all the letters attached to the number 802.11. These letters include B, G, A and N. They represent the kind of wireless router protocol supported by your wireless router. The letters show you how the wireless router connects with the other wireless devices. The most common wireless router protocol is B and G. Both B and G work on a 2.4 GHz frequency, which is also the same frequency used by other household appliances, making wireless routers with B and G protocols more prone to interference. The G protocol transmits up to 54 Mbps or megabytes per second whereas the B protocol transmits only up to 11 mbps. Another kind of wireless router protocol is the A protocol. It operates on 5 GHz frequency, thus making 802.11a wireless routers less prone to outside interferences. Unfortunately, there are less wireless devices that operate under the A network thus you must first check with your wireless device provider if they are compatible. The A protocol transmits up to 54 Mbps, thereby making it as fast as the G protocol. The newest technology in wireless routers today is the N wireless router protocol. It transmits up to 600 Mbps and has extended signals due to the new technology (Multiple Input, Multiple Output). The problem is, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has not yet certified the N protocol and it may need some more maintenance than other protocols.
