I have three computers in my home, all with printers. Two are connected to
the LAN via wireless, one directly. The two that are wireless, I was able to
network them to be able to use the same printers. I have tried to get the
hard wired one connected to these printers and have been unable to do so. I
have pinged the other computers with success, but it won't find the printers
I am looking for. Any help would be appreciated.

Are all three printers actually designated as "Shared" with a "Share Name"?

Yes they are. Sorry, I thought I had mentioned that, but forgot.
