Does your printer have network access built in? If not you need to buy a "print server" that lets you connect a USB or parallel cable to the printer and a CAT-5 cable the the wireless router. I use a TRENDnet TE100-P1U with a USB connection. The included instructions didn't work. But, they had better instructions online.

This is a link to the printer manual.

The only option is to buy a "print server" that lets you connect a USB to the printer and a CAT-5 cable to your wireless router (I assume you have one). You then need to configure a new printer ID on each of your PCs using the network address of the "print server"
