legion,

if your printer has a card built in, you can connect to it wirelessly with the equipment you have...just plug it into the wireless router internal switch in the back. You should be able to create a link to that printer from your Laptop, wirelessly, via the IP Address and not thru a shared printer resource or a print server.

find the IP Address of your printer, then try adding a new printer. pick LOCAL and uncheck the box to auto-install, at the next screen pick the lower area to add a port and in the listbox pick TCP/IP. At the next screen, put in the IP Address of the printer and give the new port a name. Follow the directions from there on out...

im kinda doing this from memory so its probably not 100%, hop e it helps

Good luck,
