A device which accepts text as well as graphics output from the computer or mobile phone and transfers the said information to the paper is called a printer. Printers come in various sizes, different speeds and price points. The only question that arises is do you need wifi for a wireless printer? Also, how important is a Wi-Fi connection while using a wireless printer? There are two types of modern printers available in the market: Bluetooth printers and Wi-Fi printers. Although the Bluetooth printers can be placed several meters from the computer and at any desired place, you will still need to establish a Bluetooth connection between your devices which can get tricky. A Wi-Fi printer connects wirelessly to a Wi-Fi router so that any computer or device can gain access on the same network which is established through your device.

Now for the wireless printer to work efficiently and to its full limits, your laptop, computer, or device needs to have a wireless connection and an IP address so that you can send in the output for the printer. Using Wi-Fi, you can establish an “Ad Hoc” connection.

With the presence of Wi-Fi, you can handle functions like creating a separate IP address on the subnet, Dynamics Host Control Protocol server, and an 802.11- compatible radio which will handle the wireless frequency transmission which a layman can do easily. Also passing information on two different networks or subnets, masking different IP’s and communicating between devices will require a router and therefore you will need Wi-Fi for a wireless printer
