I have a followings.
1. Belkin wireless router
2. Brother MFC-210 with USB connectivity
3. Laptop with builtin wireless adapctor
I access internet using builtin wireless adaptor from my laptop but when I have to print something, I have to physically connect my laptop with printer using USB cable because it doesn't have ethernet card where I can connect it to my router and access from laptop wirelessly.
My question is if I purchase USB wireless adaptor and connect to my printer, will I able to access printer from my laptop over wireless? Do I need any special configuration?
If not than what would be the best and cheapest solution to share my printer using wireless router so I can access from remotely.
Thanks,

I may be mistaken but a wireless print server is for printing only, you will loose all of the scan/fax functions. If your printer was not design for a network you will have limited to no support over wireless. Now some print servers emulate different ports, like usb. But then it is no longer a network device. Requires software to be installed on each station.
