CHEAP method of making printer wireless?

[Beyond]

i've looked at print servers, but i just don't have $80 to spend..

is there a cheap alternative i've overlooked to make my printer wireless? doesn't have to be over a great distance either.. just to the other side of my room in fact....

move the printer to the other side of the room whenever you wanna print something

Print servers are the only way. YOu COULD have a whole computer wherever you want the printer and just have it be your wireless connectino, but that'd be rather pointless...

that sucks..

do you know of any cheaper than $80?

if you're in the market for a new printer, there's some with built in networking, dunno about wireless but there's wired from your router I know

there's a few bluetooth adaptors for printers here, you need to look through them though to make sure it is what you want because some are not bluetooth printer adaptors

*edit* also be aware that you'll need a bluetooth dongle for your pc too
