Hello Rayman,
Can you access the files on the computer that has the printer with your
wireless laptop. I other words have you created a workgroup (network) so
that your computers can talk to each other? If not then that's the problem.
Your laptop cannot find the Printer on the PC because its not on the same
network yet. You also have to make the printer "shared" on your pc so it
can
be seen through the network.
Hope this helps!
