Questions about Dell Printer
Hi All....I have a dell vostro 1500 notebook.
Here is a link to a laser printer I am thinking about getting. Why is there a price for just the printer, and a separate price for the printer and network adapter. Do I need a network adaptor? Is this printer able to work with my laptop?

I am very lost at printing capabilities, and have to figure it out this year, as I have to print product catalogues out. Any help appreciated.

You only need the network adaptor if you want to attach the printer to the network rather than to a pc . . The printer should work fine with your Vostro.

If you are connecting it to just one computer, you don't need the adapter. If you want to share the printer across a network, like through a router, you should get the adapter.
