That particular printer connects to the computer by way of a parallell cable. The parallell port on the back of your computer is shaped like the monitor port, but it is longer. Go to Start > Control Panel > Printers. Double-click Add New Printer, or select it from the list on the left side of the screen (in Windows XP). This will start the Add New Printer Wizard. If your printer is not listed (it should be listed if you have Windows XP), or if you have the installation CD for the printer, click Have Disk and install that driver and software.\n\nWhen the installation wizard tells you to, connect the printer to the computer. Then, finish the installation, and you should be ready to print.

DO NOT connect the cable before installing the software\n\nprinter software will walk you through the setup.  connecting the cable to the printer before running the software will cause the installation to fail on all new printers.  unless your printer is a vintage 1999, run the software first.  follow the software's on screen prompts which will guide you step by step through the instalation.

You need a USB Print server, such as one of these: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=371\n\nThe device connects to the USB cable from your printer.  You assign it network properties (IP address, gateway, etc.) and, voila, you have a network printer.

did you install all the drivers and software that came with the printer?

Yes.  The HP printer will come with a CD with drivers on it for Windows XP (which is what I assume you're running).  As long as it's XP, it won't matter what the hardware is.

The printer has to be shared first on the computer it is connected to. On the other computer in the net you have to choice: Start/Printers and Faxes. ‘Printer and faxes’ folder will appear. Double click on the ‘Add a printer’ link in left. ‘Add printer Wizard’ dialog box will appear now. In second step of the wizard select ‘A network printer, or printer attached to another computer’ checkbox. Then you have to proceed as you install printer on local machin.

you have to share the printer on the computer it is attached to, and have either a network or workgroup defined.  this will vary by operating system, so search "printer sharing" in your computers' help documentation.  i recommend the workgroup solution, but i'm biased, as i'm using it personally, and found it very easy to setup.  in addition to the two comps with NICs and your printer, you'll also need a wireless router.  good luck!
