Hello,
I have a PC desktop with an Epson NX127 printer connected to the desktop. I have the PC connected to a Linksys wireless router.
I had a pc laptop which was able to find and print to the Epson wirelessly. I replaced the pc laptop with a MacBook Pro and alas, it will not find the Epson printer. Any suggestions? Should I try connecting the printer to the router directly? The router only has ethernet ports and the printer cord only has a usb connection cord.
Suggestions would be appreciated.

You can buy an adapter that connects to the printer's USB port and provides an Ethernet port to connect to the Router.

Good Luck
