Does this printer have an Ethernet connection on the back? Or just a USB connection ONLY. Thanks to anyone who has one to look at and answer this.

It has a USB connection only. The printer manual covers several models. HL-2250DN / HL-2270DW / HL-2275DW also have a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX , connection, according to the manual. I don't know anything else about those models. Hope this helps.

The Dell b2360dn printer can be hooked up locally with a usb a/b cord available at any local computer or department store. I am can not remember if one came with the printer.

No you do not need the ethernet cable, everything is wireless with the exception of faxing in which you will need a phone line going the back of this printer. Hope this help

Wireless connection has not been successful for me. I have mine on an ethernet connection, and that is working out. I do have to connect via USB to configure the printer, however. The setup is kind of kludgy, but it works. It does require an intel-based mac to have full functionality, but will work with older models using a generic postscript driver.

Hi, We had some challenges in getting this printer set up. I have a PC and my wife has a MAC. We have FIOS internet coming into our home with a modem in the basement. There is an ethernet connector to our offices and a wireless modem (MAC brand). I had an older AIR port, the type that plugs into the wall and has a USB connector. We connected the HP to that and then connected that to the wireless network. I got help for sure. It can be done.

No to "can the printer be connected to the network wirelessly." It has to be connected with an ethernet cable to your router.ie. printer---cable---router is how it is connected.Great printer though.

Hello Jay. Yes, the printer has a network cable port. The USB you see in the front is for printing dircect from a USB flash device.

This is a USB printer, you need to connect the USB Cable the Square Stand, you can't plug this unit into an ethernet port as it does not have an ethernet connection. However you need to use a physical cable to connect it and don't use a cheap or long cable as the performance is spotty with poor or long cables.

Tom, Yes it does. I bought this printer a few weeks ago. No USB cable though!

This is not a wireless printer, the WiFi version is M401dw. You need either a USB cable or Ethernet. The USB cable is probably easier to configure. Using an Ethernet makes it a network printer. But even with the USB cable you can still share the printer on your wireless network so you don't really need the wireless version.

I used an HP printer with a USB connect. The computer found and loaded the drivers, no problem. I just had to go into the control panel and change the default printer.

A USB cable will work. This printer also can be connected to a computer via an Ethernet cable.

There are usb ports. That's the most popular printer connection if your printer is not network (LAN or wireless) enabled.

I ordered my wife a laptop for Christmas and I bought her the exact printer that you are referring to. It did not come with a USB cable. It has a connection but you have to buy a separate cable to connect to your computer or laptop.

Yes it does. We connect this printer directly to the router via Ethernet (RJ45). We can then print to the printer via Ethernet (if your router has additional ports), WIFI, or even USB.

This printer does not have networking capabilities. You will need to purchase the SL-M2625DW in order to have that feature, though it can be configured to work on the network through USB and an Airport Express or Airport Extreme.
