Consider linking the printer to a computer and using that machine as a print server. The challenge is ensuring the device stays powered continuously for printing access.

Alternatively, think about older standalone print servers that could be connected via router. It might still be an option worth exploring.

Another choice is purchasing a printer that includes an Ethernet port or built-in WiFi capability.
