I am running windows vista and I am connected wirelessly through a router using linksy to two other computers also running vista. On one of the computers that is connected through a wireless adapter, it has the printer connected to it. The printer I am using is a SHARP multi func. I enabled printer sharing on it and I still can not see the printer on the other two computers. Please help
 
the system with the attached printer:
be sure the printer is shared
enable Simple Print/File sharing
allow exceptions in the firewall, specifically Print/File Sharing​
all other system:
allow exceptions in the firewall, specifically Print/File Sharing​

your first indication that you are on the right track will be to see all system names:
Entire Network->Workgroup->all names appear
workgroup could be mshome or any other name

on the remote systems attempting to access the printer, the should see
Network->Workgroup->system-w/printer-attached->printer.name
