How to get wireless PC on same newtwork as wired

I have 3 computers running XP, one wireless and the others wired. The wired
are networked and connected to one router which connects to a second router
that connects to the internet.

My wireless PC talks to the second router, and I have a printer wired to the
second router. The printer is detected by the wireless PC.

But the wired network does not detect the wireless PC or its printer. How do
I get them to see each other?

Thanks for any help.

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.

why do you have 2 routers? you really should only be using one.

Turn off the DHCP server on the first router (the one that does NOT provide
Internet service), and connect a LAN port on the second router to a LAN port on
the first router (NOT the WAN port).
