Is the dell xps8300 wi-fi enabled?
I have an xps 8300. Am not very computer savy. I got a new canon TS9120 printer from Best Buy.
Found out that it is wireless ONLY (no USB or ethernet). I am connected to the wi-fi router via ethernet.
I do not even know if the xps 8300 is wi-fi enabled.
Any help is appreciated.

I think some of the 8300s have Wireless cards. It will likely be Wireless N 2.4Ghz, which is fine for printing.
But....
Specs on the TS9120 list both USB and ethernet.
Standard Interface Hi-Speed USB, Ethernet, PictBridge (LAN/Wireless LAN),14 Wi-Fi® (Wireless
LAN, 2.4/5.0 GHz
Are you sure they didn't hide an ethernet port or USB port on it?
