If you have a normal home printer, you hook it up to a computer via the USB Port, and enable file/print sharing in Windows. This will allow any computer on the network to print things to that printer.
 
i did.....but when i use my other computer (which connects to my router thou. wireless PCI) to search for network printer, nothing came out
