My set up is desktop rinning windows XP hard wired to Wireless Router and
Lexmark All-in-One. Want to share printer with Laptop running XP and using
Belkin wireless card. Have turned off firewalls and tried everything I've so
far read on how to overcome problems, but I'm still getting message from
laotop taht @cannot communicate with printer, USB unplugged'.
I'm now getting desperate and frustrated. Printer sharing is on. How can I
get laptop to accept Lexmark without hard wiring it to laptop. Tried
everything , can anyone suggest something I've overlooked.

On the laptop have you gone to add printer and then add network printer.
browse for the printer and then install. it may ask you to install drivers so
your printer will work.
