I did a quick search for this because i know I can't be the first person
with this issue. I'm building a new computer for my mother-in-law. It
will be located upstairs in the 2nd bedroom. The old computer along
with the printer are located on the main floor foyer. The new computer
will run XP and the old computer runs ME. I need to get each computer
connected to the printer. It's an HP all-in-one. What are my options?

Thanks
