How to set up printer?

How do I set up a printer (HP PSC700) to enable it to be "shared" with a Desktop, to which it is connected at present and 5 wireless devices?
I have a NETGEAR router, and both the Desktop and wireless devices are connected to the Internet through this.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Correct answer - but if you have any firewall software installed, make sure it is set to allow file & printer sharing.

You know, it really helps if you say what Operating System you are using!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This answer assumes Windows XP.

Go to Start, Printer & Faxes. Right click on the printer's icon and select Share.

Now on each computer that you wish to use it dot he same but select Add a Printer. Now use the Install Network Printer Wizard. Yo may need drivers for the printer handy for each of the PCs.
