How well do the printers work anyway wirelessly? Depending on the service advertisement protocols and printing protocols used, the client types, your authentication requirements (since most printers don't do WPA2-Enterprise/802.1X) and your subnetting/address assignment scheme, I wonder how successful people are at actually getting these things to work anyway. -- Julian Y.
