Connecting Windows98SE Desktop to XP Laptop for printing/file shar

I have Windows Xp Media Center Ed. 2004 laptop with wireless connection to
Netgear WGR614 router, which is also wired by network card to desktop running
Windows 98SE. Desktop is USB'd to printer.

I need to set up wireless file sharing and wireless printing.

Can you run me through the steps or point to an article, please?

I am a novice at networking, with minimal computer knowledge.
The Dell people could not help me.

Thank you!

Marc D.

Thanks, Jack, but I followed the suggestions in the article and still cannot
share files or print. Any other suggestions, please?
