wireless printing

I am trying to set up wireless printing from my laptop.
My printer is a local printer connected to my pc and my laptop is connected
by wireless internet which works fine.
When i try and add my printer it doesnot find the printer
Things that I have done are:
Turned on file and printer sharing
They are both on the same network
Ran networking wizzard on both computers
I am not sure what else to do???

Is file-sharing between your desktop and laptop actually working? Can you
transfer files across both ways? If the answer is no, then you haven't got
your lan sharing set up correctly. If the answer is yes, you may need to
run the printer installer on the laptop first. With recent HP printers,
this is necessary and they won't work with just the Add Printer wizard in
Control Panel.

Provide more information as requested above. Also tell us what operating
systems you are using and if XP, whether Home/Pro and the Service Pack
level. Tell us what firewalls you have on both machines.
