We have just installed a BT voyager 2100 wireless adsl router. We have a desktop computer running windows 98 which is connected to an Epson Photo Stylus 750 printer and is "wired" to the router via a pci networking card. How do we get the laptop which is running XP Proffessional and is wirelessly connected using the BT 1060 pcmcia card to access the printer? Many thanks in advance

That all seems rather convoluted, assuming your network is already set up, make sure you have set your printer to be shared,it will automatically have a name. Then on your client PC/Laptop go to start/Printers & Faxes and then select `Add a printer' and follow the instructions. This will then search for a printer on your network and install it on your client and will ask for drivers as you are running a different version of Windows on the client.
