Study says that children are particularly at risk .Computer-related injuries reported in US hospitals rose between 1994 and 2006. The number of serious accidents rose 732 per cent over the period. The study, by researchers in Columbus, Ohio, was reported in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.
In Britain, computer-related accidents in the home rose from around 800 in 1995 to more than 1,800 in 1999 and 2,100 in 2002 - the latest figures available. Since then the figures are thought to have shot up dramatically as home computers become increasingly popular.
Others were caused by badly designed desk layouts, or equipment falling on its owner.
Some of the patients suffered from bangs to the head after equipment fell on them. Others were hurt clothes were snagged on sharp corners or when they tripped on cables.
Playing computer games for more than seven hours a week can alter your biological clock, leaving you sleep-deprived and open to a host of health problems, U.S. scientists have warned. Doctors believe the bright light of a computer screen may suppress the hormone melatonin which helps regulate the normal sleep-wake cycle.
Wireless printers allow a single printer to be networked by other computers on your wireless network, allows you to make a central location for all printer users, allows you to place the printer further from your computer without running USB cable or further than USB code allows. It does require a wireless router as the hub. Depends on what you want and need.
The most common method of wireless printing is to connect your printer to your home's Wi-Fi network. The advantage of this method--assuming you already have a Wi-Fi network--is that you shouldn't need much new equipment. A simple wireless router with a built-in USB, serial, or Ethernet port should do, depending on what type of printer you own. From that point, you simply connect the printer directly to the router, and then locate the printer on your Wi-Fi network. As a bonus, anyone on your Wi-Fi network can access the printer just like they do the Internet.
Wi-Fi isn't the only wireless technology, of course, as Bluetooth is also popular. However, it's hard to justify Bluetooth as a wireless printing technology for laptop and desktop computers when Wi-Fi has a much longer range and is easier to use. The best application for Bluetooth is when your computer and/or printer aren't capable of Wi-Fi networking, or when you're printing from mobile devices like cell phones, PDAs, or digital cameras.

Printers in which a Radio Frequency (RF) interface is used to connect the printer to a network is called a wireless printer and also called Handheld Mobile Printers, Mobile Wireless Printers, Mobile Printers, Portable Handheld Printers, Pocket Printers, Hand held Printers, and Hand held Wireless Printers
A wireless printer does not require printer cable and there are many printers that work wireless, it means , they either send and receive Blue tooth signals from your Blue tooth-enabled computer, or they send and receive Wi-Fi signals from your home’s wireless router. Normally a built-in Wi-Fi antenna picks up your home’s network signal. If your computer is online, it will "see" the printer on the network and will be able to print directly to it without any connected cables.
There are many companies that are manufacturing wireless printers , some of them are HP, Kodak, Cannon and Samsung .
