Is there a wireless connection I can purchase for my Epson RX500 printer?

Doesn't appear so, from a review of their support site.

What is it you are wanting to do? There may be other ways to "skin the cat".

We keep our laptops downstairs for working and the printer is upstairs. I want to be able to send print jobs to the printer w/o taking the laptop up to the printer and hooking it up. Make sense? Everything else today seems to be able to do be done wirelessly so I thought perhaps we could do this.

Does make sense.....in your case, I think I would recommend purchasing a wireless print server.

I looked at wireless print servers and read the reviews and finally decided that a wireless printer would be the way to go. Not all print servers will work with all printers and only certain ones will work with all-in-one printers as well. The price was going to be about the same in the end. The printer I decided on is the HP C4385. I have not purchased it yet, but HP seems to have the best price from what I can find - $110 after a $25 rebate.
