problems sharing printer

I'm having probems sharing the printer of my desktop with
my wireless laptop. I'm using the Microsoft MN-500 and
have a hp psc 900 printer connected to desktop and have
enabled printer sharing on both. I know I'm missing
something, but can't enable printer sharing (again, trying
to print from laptop to the desktop's printer). Any
thoughts? Thanks

For XP, on the desktop PC, is the printer set as shared?
If not, left-mouse click on the printer icon and select
sharing.

Have you added the printer on the laptop as a network
printer? It's on Printer and Faxes -- using the wizard,
select network printer -- the printer should appear on
the list.
