Hi,

I was hoping somone could point me in the right direction. I have a desktop
with a usb printer attached.

I also have a wireless network setup and want my laptop to be able to print
on the printer without having to move the usb cable to the laptop. Is there
someway to do this?

Thanks in advance.
