    What should I use?

    I've got this pc and need to connect it to the printer that is in another area that can not be gotten to for hrd wiring. What are my options to complete my system?

    What printer make and model and what are your port options on the PC? Got a router, hub , or switch around? There's wireless if the Printer got te caps.

    Penewah!

    I hope by "another area" you mean another room nearby, and not another city.

    If it's in range and you have wirless networking, you can use a wirless Print server to use it, I have my printer in the closet on one, completly out of the way, but there when I need it, many will even use scanners as well.  Just make sure your printer/scanner is supported by them before you get whatever one your looking at. (you'll probably have to hard wire it to the network to set it up, then you can use it wirelessly anywere in range)
