The most inexpensive way is to buy an Inexpensive Wireless Cable/DSL Router (about $20), and a Wired Printer server (about $40). Connect the Printer via the server with a CAT5e to the Router. Equip the Laptop with Wireless PCMCIA (about $15) and you can print through the Network that is created. If shop carefully the cost might be around $60-$70. There are Bluetooth adaptors for printers and computers but the cost might be much more and it can do anything else but printing. :sun:
