How to connect tablet app to printer via wifi, in Puppy?
Good day to you all.. i have a tablet, with a printer app that has usb and wifi connection, but i cannot find any Puppies that support wifi. is there an app for this, or is it a cups problem. the puppies work with usb.

On the tablet you have the option of Usb or wifi. but with cups you only have Usb I have no room on the desk for the printer so i leave it in another room. when i want to print with puppy i have to stand it on a chair and use usb.but i would like to use it from the other room. with wifi.
Have you read How to Install your Printer in Puppy?
All CUPS versions in all Puppies can access a wireless printer, provided that the computer and printer are on the same subnet.
How is your printer connected to your WiFi network? How does your computer connect to WiFi?
Run PeasyPort and scan for port 9100.
You still have not identified your printer's make/model.

Sorry about the delay in replying....
It is a canon pixma 3150, i can make this work with USB and CUPS.
I will delete and reinstall and look for the wifi.

the printer uses wifi to talk the tablet via the router. this works but what i want to do is use a puppy and the printer via wifi. at the moment i have to use USB from puppy to the printer. i only have one printer but no room on the desk so i have to put the printer on a chair. next to me.but i have room in the bedroom. you get a blue light on the printer when it is paired with the router this is working.

the printer is a canon pixma 3150 working via uusb.
Do you know the IP address of the printer?
Run PeasyPort. Use the MAC button. Is the printer detected?
Scan your network for ports 515 and 9100. Is the printer detected?
What Puppy version are you using?
Have you read How to Install your Printer in Puppy yet?
I have asked you FIVE questions. Please answer them ALL.
