I have just ordered the 3 piece Orbi Tri-band and I was hoping that I could order an additonal satellite and connect our large business legacy Ricoh printer/copier/scanner to the satellite to join the network and be used by wireless and wired devices on the network. Right now it can only be accessed if you are connected on the wired part of the network, the wireless devices can't access it even though they are going to the same router(cable modem combo). Inshort the Ricoh has no wireless capabilities, but it does have an Ethernet connections. This is not a inexpensive home printer that is easily replaced, and we need the capabilities of this printer. Any suggestions or information would be helpful. Thank You, SusyH.
