I use this regularily with my network and it works
great. Couple of things I set up:
1. the client PC has the printer set up and print sharing
is set for that printer. (printer setup, properties,
sharing)
2. I install a new printer on the wireless machine and
search for the network printer. With sharing enabled you
should see it.
3. most likely it will request a driver for that printer
on your local PC.
After that, mine work. I have done the same through a
Linux system as well. The wireless network should work
the same as a wired system.
good luck.
