I've got a computer upstairs hardwired to my wireless router and a
WiFi computer downstairs that is hardwired to my printer. Can I
print from my computer upstairs? I have tried everything, and now I
have to resort to begging :o

Edit: By the way, it's just a standard wireless router and an HP
photo printer.

Same workgroup. enable print sharing.
 
I don't have time to fully explain, but generally you share the printer and
then add a network printer on the other computer.

Just so you know, because its wireless doesn't make a difference.

What does make a difference is that some HP printers can't seem to be shared
and I don't know why. I just know that if you go to the HP web site and
lookup the drivers for your printer it may say "No network support".
