    Printing from my wireless laptop
    I'll apologize up front if this question is redundant, but I couldn't find an answer that seemed to apply.

    I currently have a PC with the printer attached and am using a DSL modem with wireless router for the laptop. I am wondering if there is a way to print to the printer that is connected to the PC, from the laptop?

    I appreciate any advice or suggestions.

    Thank You

    Yep, share the printer. A Google search for "printer sharing" should give you plenty of hits.

    Hopefully the PC already shares the internet connection.

    Hi Missouri,

    First of all you have to connect your laptop to wireless modem after that go to control panel in your laptop and after that start Add new Printer Wizard and select add Network printer or attached to other computer after that if you choose first option the wizard will search auto on network (Note: the printer and the computer must be on during installation)
    Once the wizard finished next time you don't need to install again,

    I wish to my answer can solve your problem,
