Wireless Network Printing

S

skip

Hi all,
I hope I have the right NG.
I have 1 laptop with Vista Home Premium, 1 with WIN XP SP2 (all
updates) and a desktop with WIN XP SP2 (all updates). I also have my 2
HP printers and the 1 HP scanner attached to my desktop.
I want to be able to print to either of the HP Printers from my
laptops. I am using a Linksys wireless router.
Everything works fine for the laptops and the desktop. I just need
help or guidance in getting the laptop's to print to the printers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just share the printers from the desktop, and then install the printers
as "Network" printers on the laptop. If you need/want to print while the
desktop isn't running, you need a print server, which can be wired or
wireless.
