Hi
I am not familiar with your specific Printer.
In principle you have to configures the printer on the Desktop to be able to
Share.
Vista File and Printer Sharing-

Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP -

Then use the control panel/printer in the laptop to add the printer choose
to add a network share printer and install the printer's drivers on the
laptop.
Some printers might be installed differently consult the printer's manual
for more specific instructions.
Your printer is All in One device some of these devices can share only the
printer. I.e. the Cop, Fax,, Scanner, etc. might not work over the network.
