As we now have three computers at home I am looking for a wifi/ethernet

Wifi tends to be mostly on the expensive printers.

Anything with an ethernet card can be plugged into your wireless routers
ethernet port, and will then be available to any WiFi connected computer
(subject to possibly firewall rules if you have any).

I did not realise that you could get a printer with ethernet and no wifi. I will look out for some info on that.

So unless you think you need to move the printer around a lot just get
an ethernet connected one is my advice.

I do not plan to move the printer at all once set up.

I concur with the view that printing colour stuff at home is painful,
expensive, and it is often as quick and easy to get it done professionally.


I am now also looking at B/W printers.

Thanks

Neil
