Well, it sounds like a home/small office network.\n\n1. Connect the printer to any of the two computers.\n2. Connect each computer's LAN cable to the switch.\n3. Check that both computer's LAN CARDS (in their properties windows) have listed: TCP/IP, Client for Microsoft Networks, and File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks. If you are using Windows 98, you also need the IPX/SPX or Netbios protocol.\n4. On the TCP/IP properties, select the AUTOMATIC options.\n5. Then, right click your printer icon, and click on SHARING, and follow up the screen instructions.\n\nGood luck!

you cant unless you have the following:\n\nfor printer you need a network interface, if the printer comes with a network option then get it, otherwise get a jetdirect box (jetdirect is a trademark of HP, there are others available)\n\nfor modem you need a modem router, wireless is available. this will act as a modem and network hub which you will also need for the printer.\n\nto set all this up this is what you do\n\n1) remove current modem and replace with router\n2) connect to router on desktop and setup up ISP account (username and password to get you connected to the internet)\n3) connect laptop to router (either wireless or wired) and join same workgroup as desktop\n4) connect printer to router (either JD box or network card) and assign an IP to it\n5) add the printer to both machines using the IP address allocated\n\nthere is no other way of sharing a printer even using the "Share printer" because without networking it, the desktop MUST be on for it to work, thats what its plugged into after all\n\nthats about it really

The simplest way to do that would be to physically connect the printer to one of the computers and share the printer so the other computers can print through that printer.\n\nAlternatively, if you don't want to connect any one computer to the printer, you can get a JetDirect print server. The 1200n comes with JetDirect already, though I don't think it is wireless. In any event, HP sells wireless JetDirect servers which would work with your printer.

Yes you can.\n\nThe easiest way is probably to get a router with network printer capabilities.  This will enable you to hook the printer directly to the router, and access it from any computer on the network.\n\nIf you use a laser printer (like an HP), you can also get a network card for it.  Then you simply hook it to the router like any other computer, and again access it remotely.

Go to the Brothers website and download the drivers for that printer.\nYou may also be able to download the book for it.

you need two things...maybe 3...\n\na wireless card for your laptop\na WAP (wireless access point)\n\nand someway to connect your printer...usually a print server but it could be shared by a PC...\n\ncheck with your local computer store - circuit city, best buy...whatever.  the directions will help with everything except maybe the printer - if it connected to a PC...but you can ask another question for that one!!!\n\ngood luck

You can hook it up to a wireless print server. Linksys makes one that is inexpensive.  Or you can do what I have here.  I bought a wireless router with a built in printserver.  I have a Brother HL-1240 hooked up to it.  I also have a color laser that is network ready hooked in to the same router.  All three items are in the TV cabinet in the living room.  That way anyone  can print to any printer any time and it is relatively convienent for all.

It depends on what operating system you are using.  Assuming Windows XP or Windows 2000, the most common, here's what you need to do.\n\nLog on to the computer which acts as the network server for your wireless network.  This computer must have Administrator level access to the operating system.\n\n1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. \n2. Double-click Internet Options. On the Connections tab, select your connection, and then click Settings. \n3. Click Properties, click the Networking tab, and then enable or disable the appropriate features, i.e. make sure the Print and File sharing option is active.\n\nDuring the setup of the Print and Filesharing function, you will need to name your printer.  Make sure to note what name you use, because when you go back to your wireless laptop and try to connect to the printer, you will need to provide the laptop with the printer name.\n\nAfter you have activated Printer and Filesharing on the network server, go back to your wireless laptop.\n\nAgain, get to the networking tab in Internet Settings, and set up your printer. That's where you'll provide the laptop with the printer name.  It'll try to connect through the WAN, and you should be able to print.\n\nIf you have any trouble, refer to Windows Help files, and type "Printer and Filesharing" in the search window.  \n\nGood luck.
