NO. But there's an easy way to make it wireless.Just use a wirelless access point. connect the printer to it with a cat5 cable.Configure the wireless access point to act as a wireless client bridge to connect to your main WIFI network.I suggest you purchase a WIFI AP on which you can change the firmware to DDWRT. so you can make it a wireless client.The cost of an AP is about $50 and if a wifi card would exist it would probably cost more than that.

you need a wireless router that has an internet connection to be able to print

If you lack a wireless router you can connect the printer to your computer with a USB cable, or to a wired network with an Ethernet cable. And, of course, it supports the earlier wireless "B" and "G" standards if you have an older wireless router which doesn't support "N".

No. You can hook it up to a wireless router and access it that way. It's an excellent printer. I little noisy, but the print quality and scan quality are the best.

Yes but it will only use one connection method at a time. As long as the printer is on the network it shouldn't matter.

Printer can be setup "wired" - with USB or Ethernet. If "wireless" then you do need a WiFi modem/router.

This printer does not have the wireless feature. I plug mine directly into a router.

No, but if the computer it is plugged into is on and running a network, then you can send use the network to print files from any computers/laptops on the home network.

It is wireless ready, so you need to have some type of internet access/network for the printer to be on. It also has a USB port/cable to print directly

Yes. You do have to connect the printer directly to the router or modem and be on the same network. Or connect the printer to the network.

If the printer is indeed a M601N (the "N" is for Network), then it will have a standard Ethernet connection for network connectivity. You would use a standard CAT-5 or CAT-6 network cable to connect the printer to your data network.

Yes you need a USB cord pluged in to your computor or lap top if you want to print from there you don't need to be hooked up to anything if you want to make copies only hope this helps it is not a wireless printer'
