Printer/ Wireless Router Issues
I run my desktop and laptop through a wireless router I setup in the house in 2005. Was able to print off both no problem until the hard drive in the desk top died a couple weeks ago; ever since I replaced it, I can't print anything off the laptop. I removed and then re-installed the printers from the laptop, but that didn't help. I asume I have to do something through the router, but Geek Squad hooked all that up for me (and it was worth every penny, IMHO), and I have no idea where to go from here. Geek Squad left info on WEP/WAP key, SSID/network name, work group name, etc... Any suggestions as to where to go from here?

If it is connected to either PC then it was probably setup as a shared printer.
All you need to do is re-establish the share on the PC the printer is connected to..
Let me know which way it is connected for further instructions..
