i recently bought a D-Link Wireless router, and I want to
set up my computers to use the printer wirelessly. Here's
the catch: I don't have a printer server, and the
computer that the printer is hooked up to is running
Windows 98 SE and my laptop is running XP Pro. Does
anyone KNOW how to do this? Let me know ASAP!

On Windows 98 SE, right-click and share the printer. After a few
minutes, Windows XP should automatically detect the shared printer on
the network and install it.

If XP doesn't install it automatically, go to Control Panel | Printers
and Other Hardware, click "Add a printer", and install it manually as
a network printer.
