[QUOTE="Ward Webber, post: 208342, member: 9330"] Thanks for the response, sabretooth02. I can find three sockets under the scanner bed. One is labeled "EXT.", with a telephone symbol; too small for a Cat 5 connector. The one next to it is labeled "LINE" and is also too small; it appears to be identical to the other one. The third has a USB symbol, but has an odd square-looking socket that doesn't appear to fit a normal USB connector. Anyway, it turns out that my printer has no Ethernet socket; it can connect only to a wireless network. Here's a quote from a PC Magazine web review of it: "Also under the category of connection choices that the Brother MFC-J870DW has but the MFC-J650DW doesn't are Ethernet and Wi-Fi Direct." I could connect my own PC directly to the printer using a USB cable, but I don't think that would let my wife print from her computer. Looks as if I have to go wireless after all. [/QUOTE]
