The Canon MP210 does not feature built-in wireless capability, so to connect it wirelessly you need a USB-enabled router to join a Wi-Fi network. This allows you to use the Canon MP210 to print, scan or copy from any of the computers on the network in your home or office. Windows already includes the necessary utilities to configure the networked printer into your operating system.
