I am trying to connect to a printer located on another computer, I added it
as a printer but it still will not print, is there a step I'm missing? When
i troubleshoot the problem it says I am not connected to that network, how
can i get connected?

Is this a simple peer-to-peer network/workgroup?

Can you browse the files in any directory on the other computer, the one
with the printer attached?

Is the printer on the other computer set to allow sharing?

Have you run network set up wizard? You need to run this before you can
share a printer. You will need to run this on both computers.
