I would not be surprised if Texas made it legal to run over cyclists on
the roads, considering the number of politicians with anti-social
personality disorder the state elects.
I say, let Texas succeed from the Union, if they want - get them out of
Congress and Presidential elections.

Not a bad idea. Let them annex Mexico so they can attack narcos not
cyclists.

If wired Ethernet is a viable option, it is much better. If USB
connection to an always-on computer is an option, it is usually a very
good option.
I would use WiFi as a last resort if the above 2 are impractical.
Many printers now come "standard" with a WiFi option, especially if you
are spending $$ for duplexing or other office-type options. HP
OfficeJet 8500 and Brother HL-5370 are examples.
