you need to share your printer that it is installed on.
In Windows XP
Click Start, Printers and Faxes
Right click on the printer you intend to print to, left click on sharing
then click the Sharing Tab
make sure the button is checked for sharing the printer.
On your laptop, you need to
Click Start, Printers and FAxes
Add printer, network printer and follow prompts.
The Linksys Wireless-G PrintServer lets you connect a USB printer directly to your network,
eliminating the need to dedicate a PC to print sharing chores. Using a PrintServer frees up
your “”print share PC”" so you don’t have to leave it on all the time. It also removes the printing
bottleneck, and sets your PC free to do more useful work.
Connect the PrintServer directly to your network by 10/100 Ethernet cable, or wirelessly over
54Mbps Wireless-G (802.11g). The wireless option lets you put your printer wherever you want
to, without having to run cables. Whichever way the PrintServer is attached to your network,
both your wireless and wired PCs will have access to it, and the printer it’s connected to. And
if you don’t use wireless for general networking in your office, you can still use the Wireless-G
connection in ad-hoc mode to print from visiting Wireless-G and Wireless-B PCs.
The USB port is compatible with USB 1.1 printers, as well as printers that support the new
high-speed USB 2.0 specification for even faster throughput. Your data is protected by up to
128-bit WEP encryption, or pre-shared-key WPA. A user-friendly Setup Wizard makes
installation easy, the compact case fits anywhere, and the three megabyte print buffer size
handles even large graphics-intensive print jobs. Let the Linksys Wireless-G PrintServer for
USB 2.0 bring efficiency to your printing tasks.
