I have a wireless router and a laptop with WiFi and I was thinking about purchasing a wireless printer. My laptop is normally stationed in my room which is where the printer will be and the router is down a floor and 30ft away. Does the printer work through the wireless router, or does it have a wireless receiver that will receive it through my laptop.

I use my laptop and wireless printer through a wireless router two floors away. I LOVE it.
Give your answer to this question not more than!
If the printer is capable of Ad-Hoc wireless and your laptop isn’t connecting to a wireless router or Access top, then you can do it that way. But if you’re connecting your laptop to the the internet with a wireless router, then you already have what you need. Just give the printer an IP address and Go. be aware even if if it’s not secured anyone can print to it
