Running Vista 32 Bit Home Prem on Desktop and Laptop.

My Home Network has Wireless Router...Desktop is hard wired to Router,
Laptop is wireless. Recently configured Network to let me share Printer
connected to Desktop via USB connection. The Desktop is set to sleep
after
60 mins. What I didn't realize is when Desktop goes to Sleep the Network
doesn't see it, and, trying to print from the Laptop to the shared printer
will not work.

Is there away given the configuration of my Home Network that I can Wake
the
Desktop from my Laptop when I want to Print from the Laptop when the
Desktop
has gone to Sleep? I realize I could just not let the Desktop to go into
Sleep....but that defeats the Power saving feature which is important to
me.
