Thanks! Yeah, I'd expect to install a RAM upgrade and a wireless JetDirect, for something of this vintage. I appreciate the offer of info on the upgrade, too -

Thanks! Yeah, I'd expect to install a RAM upgrade and a wireless JetDirect, for something of this vintage. I appreciate the offer of info on the upgrade, too - I might take you up on that, if I decide to go ahead and source a used one to have on the shelf for when I need it.

Actually, while not wireless, it did work out of the box plugging an Ethernet cable into a gigabit switch for me, and a 10 gigabit switch now. You could probably get away with one of those Ethernet WiFi adapters, though I have not tried it.

  That's the sort I have in mind, yeah. Ethernet's a bit of a problem in this house, at least till I bite the bullet and put in the work of running drops. In the meantime, mesh networking is surprisingly good, enough so that needing to add a switch and a mesh node to my print farm would be an annoying complication - that said, HP does make external wireless adapters for their printers also under the JetDirect line, and that's what I have in mind here. (At least I think that's the line. I had one in a parts bin once, ten years and two moves ago...)
