Here you go (link below). Epson V600 technical specifications.
It doesn't say anything about wireless in the technical specifications.

I've had one for 4+ years, from before wireless was everywhere in digital technology. I wouldn't think this model does / will ever be wireless.

Hi from another Michigander,
I have had one since 2008, that one quit working, so I bought another last year. I see mine is connected to my electrical fail safe box, because of brownouts. The scanner is also connected to the computer via another cable that came with it. I would google it to make sure if it is WI-FI enabled or not. But for the price it is an excellent scanner, and will do medium format as well as 35mm negatives or prints. I just scanned some prints from a 2003 family vacation and emailed them to a few family members, and they were geeked.

It may be compatible with a wireless printer server. I have three printers, one of them an all in one, all connected to a wireless server. This way we can print to any of the printers from any PC.

It isn't Wireless capable. It may be a bandwidth issue as scanners can produce very large files if set to high resolution making the transfer time quite long over a limited BW Wi-Fi link, but just a guess.

Out of the box, no it is not wireless. A print server may be possible. Retired mine when any printers shared on my network were replaced with wireless. I still have dedicated photo printers wired to the proper PC, as I do my V600.

Maybe if you're an electronics wizard.

Bandwidth is not the issue. I use 2 different wireless combo printer/scanner/fax things at home, and there is no issue scanning even at high resolutions.

I think you are looking for something like this wireless USB hub. You use the cable that came with the printer to connected it to the hub.

You may want to contact Silex to confirm that it will work with your scanner.

Would suggest you check with Epson since they are the only ones who really know how they designed it to work.
