Problem sharing a printer

Do you have file and print sharing installed on both computers?

Are you able to share folders on the machines?

I have just set up a wireless home network using Linksys Router
(WRT54G). It is set up directly to my desktop and to a remote laptop
using the WPC54G card. A Samsung ML-1200 printer is connected
directly to the desktop.

The network seems to be set up correctly as I can connect to the
internet from both computers. The problem is I can't share the
printer with the remote laptop. I can see the desktop from the remote
but it will not recognize the printer. Here are some of the facts.

- Both computers are running on Windows XP Home
- On the desktop, I have opened the sharing tab and clicked "Share
this compuer".
- The share name is ML-1200
- The workgroup name is the same for both computers.
- When attempting to access from the laptop I use Add Printer Wizard
then "Browse for printer".
- Then I get "Microsoft Network Computer", below that "Home", below
that "ABSCOMPUTER" (the name of the desktop). But I can't find the
printer!!

Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
