I am using a laptop with a wireless "g" card built in at home that is networked through mt DSL to a old desktop running Windows 98. Currently I print through thenetwork to a printer hooked to the desktop. I want to purchase a new multi-function inkjet printer that I can setup to print from the laptop with a wireless connection. I want to completely do away with the old desktop. What options do I have to print from my laptop without having the printer connected to the laptop. I can have the printer connected to the wireles router if there is a way to make that work or do I have to purchase a printer equipped with a wireless card? Thanks for your help.

I think a plain printer would work better wirelessly. I think you may have problems using the scan and fax functions.
