Default Printer Networking

I have two computers at home that are connected via a wireless network. I
would like one printer to handle all print jobs, so I'd like to network the
printer. I have the printer installed locally on one computer. How do I
connect it to my network? It does not have an individual network card and
when I specify "share this printer" on the printer properties I still cannot
solve my problem. Does the printer have its own individual IP address?
Otherwise, how do I network my printers? Thanks in advance.

I configured my firewall to let the two computers talk to each other.
Thanks for the suggestions.
