seup Epson RX500 as network printer

[hubbella]

Recently got this printer for a song and need a way to network it. I would like to avoid sharing from my computer as it is not on all the time. I do have an HP Jetdirect 175x with a USB port, but have had no luck with it.

Many thanks to any one who can help.

You need a USB print server to attach the printer to the ethernet network.

Have you checked to see if your network router has a print server built into the box, by the way? (some do)
