2 wireless PCs, 1 printer, 1 wifi router, 1 internet connection

[MJ]

I wonder if someone can help me:

I have 1 desktop and 1 laptop both running XP SP2 connected wirelessly
to the internet via a Linksys WRT54GS wireless router. There is no
network between the laptop and desktop.

The desktop is connected to an Oki B4300 printer by a usb cable.

Is it possible for me to print from the laptop 'directly' with this
configuration? Currently I print from the laptop by manually copying
the files to my desktop with a USB drive(!)...this is a bit tedious.

Let me know if more information is needed.

Thanks

Matt

If both the laptop and the desktop access the Internet thru the same wifi
router, you can set up both the be part of the "same" owrkgroup. Once this is
done, you can share the printer (where ever it may be connected) between both
and print directly from the laptop.
