do the network setup wizard on both the desktop and the laptop, give them the same network name (Home or sumit) | |

Only obvious network connection wizard available on laptop would be a VPN :S | |

Just use the home netwrok setup wizard between your laptop and desktop then you will be able to print wirelessly | |

Or possible you could buy a bluetooth that plugs into your printer then send stuff from your phone which you can get from Argos either 10m or 100m | |

yeah i have a draytek router that you can do this too. Your have to change some settings ie, your need to add a new printer then create a tcp/ip port, give the ip address of 192.168.1.1, (this may differ for a another router depending on what local addresses your using.) | |

ah ok, so I could just connect any old printer to my router and that would work. | |

yes, wireless usb adapters or some wireless routers come with a usb port so you can plug a printer into it | |
