Do I need a Network card

I am using all Dell Equipment,
a Windows 98SE box,
and a Windows XP (home edition)Wireless enabled Laptop
and a Dell Broadband wireless router.

My printer is connected to the Windows 98 SE box.

I want to print from the Laptop.

Do I need to install a wireless card in the Windows 98SE box to make the
connection?

I guess what I'm asking is ... can I make connectivity from the laptop to
the router to the printer on the Windows 98 SE box ??

Install a network card, either wired or wireless, in the Windows 98SE
box. Then, you'll be able to print from the laptop through the router
to the 98SE box.

The simplest way to set everything up is to run XP's Network Setup
Wizard on both computers -- it will automatically share the printer
and install it on XP. Tell the Wizard that they connect to the
Internet through a residential gateway.
