I've been searching through a lot of threads, but still need some advice.
I bought a Lexmark wireless printer (I know from threads I shouldn't have!).
Although it's wirelessly connected to my wifi router/hub OK, none of the Macs and PC can see it. I can only use it by plugging in the USB cable. I've tried lots of options, advice on other forums, Lexmark, my ISP etc still no wireless printing.
I haven't created any network with my 3 Macs before and it seems talking to my ISP, that the router needs to be modified at their end at cost, to allow all devices to see the printer.
So I thought about a time capsule. Question is will this allow a decent network and will all computers see the printer (and each other)?
My local Apple store said that the printer would have to be connected to the time capsule which is physically impossible in my house, plus it defeats the object of a wireless printer!!
Help!
