HP PSC 1060 connected to Dell desktop on wired network through Netgear
router. Dell Inspiron wired to this network. Using "add new printer"
wizard, Inspiron can see desktop, but not printer attached to desktop.

Both computers have XP Home. Both can use internet.

Where can I find a step by step procedure to correct my problem?

Thank you.

Have you checked to be sure that the printer is shared on the desktop?

For instructions, click Start > Help and Support, and search for the
topic "Share Your Printer".
