Wireless access point: can I use it to connect a network printer/fax/copier to my wifi router?

Question by Steven S: Wireless access point: can I use it to connect a network printer/fax/copier to my wifi router?
I have a network multifunction device (printer, fax, copier) in one room, and my cable modem/wireless router in the another. If I buy a wireless access point and connect it to the multifunction device, will I be able to use the multifunction device on the network? Or is there a better way to do this, without running cables between the rooms (not possible)?
Thanks for your help.

Get a wireless client box. There are others like it. make sure it is a “bridge” or “wireless client” device.
