What, specifically, is the symptom of the problem?

Questions:
1. have you confirmed printer works from the "Home Computer"
2. is the printer set for sharing?
3. Does user on laptop have permissions to print?
4. does file sharing work from laptop to Home computer?
5. can the laptop "see" the printer on "Home computer" in printer list?
