Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're all users here.


Some wireless routers have USB ports specifically intended to share peripherals such as printers and external hard drives. Check your wireless router manual.


Many new printers with built-in WiFi are quite inexpensive, especially compared to the cost of a set of ink cartridges! Canon Direct also sells refurbished recent printers from their website, often at substantial discounts. I recently purchased a refurbished MG5320 for $50. It may be time to invest in a new printer.


And this archived discussion from 2009 might help, if you're using an Apple Extreme base station:
