I want to connect my Canon Pixma IP4500 printer to my PC using a radio connection. Can it be done and if so how and with what.

Many thanks.

Frank, you could use a wireless printer server. that would be the only way around it. pretty inexpensive.

Another solution if you have more than one computer is network the two. Connect the printer to one of them and then share it.

That is another way to do it (for free), but keep in mind that you would have to share the printer from the host PC and that PC has to be turned ON in order to work duh, and they would have to be under the same LAN.
