I have a Xerox printer (Phaser 7500DX), usually connect through USB cord, any way I can get it to be wireless on my network?

Question

Usually I have to go to the Xerox and plug the usb cord into my computer, but I'd love to somehow set it up on my wireless network so that computers can print wirelessly. My Wifi network is a Nighthawk Router.

WIRED IST NOT WORKING FOR YOU?

I don't think the DX does WIFI native.  I think you have to add a printer server widget or there might be a card to add, WIFI was an option.

Xerox makes one, but you can use any WIFI print server module.  You might have to install printer drivers by hand instead of using printer discovery but since you already print with usb you probably have the drivers installed.

some routers [don't know about yours] support usb.  some printers support ethernet [yours?  no idea here] -- both of those should work for what you want

That printer has the option of  having an IEEE802.11a/b/g wireless connection
