    I found a web page on Playstation.com that links to HP's, Canon's, and Epson's list of supported printers:
    http://us.playstation.com/support/answer/index.htm?a_id=433
    http://h71036.www7.hp.com/hho/cache/615977-0-0-225-121.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
    And my printer, the HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus e-Print All in One, is not listed.
    My PS3 cannot find the printer when searching during the PS3 printer setup.
    So I'm wondering if it is possible (without using the ePrint service) to somehow use my printer via WiFi with my unmodified stock 40GB PS3 even though it is not supported?
    It's no big deal if it can't. Just curious.

    What can you print with the PS3? Pictures?

    Wifi, USB, it will need drivers and obviously it doesn't have them.

    You can print photos from the PS3. Yeah, it's pretty much useless.

    That'd be good for that (very common) situation where you need to print a photo and all you have is a PS3.
