Hello. Would some kind soul out there tell me how I make a KONICA MINOLTA MAGICOLOR 2400W 'wireless' as I am assuming it is so old that it is not the later. This is the first time I have ever done a public notice online and hope it will be quicker via you to get an answer - than to plow through a user manual.

I have a laptop HP PAVILION ze 4130 with Windows XP which I have made wireless by installing a NETGEAR WG111 WIRELESS USB ADAPTER - and it has been working fine - so I naively am thinking that I can do the same for the color printer which is attached to a PC in another room which is VISTA.

The broadband is via a BT provided via an ethernet router which is THOMSON ST585 v6.

I am being recommended by a friend to buy AIRPORT EXTREME by Apple and they say the latter router will work without the computers being Apple themselves and that all I need is XP or Vista and Ethernet which I have. I am also being told by Konica Minolta that "Magicolor 2400w is not theirs and I have no contact detail for the latter in order to ask the question "how do I make it wireless?"

Is it so that the Netgear USB Adapter on my laptop is NOT compatible with ???? Thank you in advance.
