So, we "wireless" the printer only to the PC, that just eliminates any need for a hotspot, right?
We do not use router, or network, just a PC and a hotspot for internet - but want the printer independent of the hotspot, so we don't have to turn on hotspot and use data allowance just to print wireless.
Printer sits in a different location than the movable laptops, so if we're in the kitchen, we would send to printer, or in the office, etc, and not have to go hook cables each time we print.
