Connect Ethernet wired computer to wireless printer through router/modem

[Loki98610]

Trying to connect with my wireless printer in another room through my computer in the bedroom that is hard wired to the router via Ethernet cable. How can I do this. Do I need a wireless adapter, or can I get to it through the router somehow? I have a centurylink pk5001z router/modem and an HP b209a wireless printer. Thanks for any help!!!

Looks like your router has wireless -

so if your comp does not have wireless, you can use the router wireless.
This is how I do it - my comp is Ethernet connected to router and does not have wireless, so I use the router wireless.
My comp can see the printer just fine.. (Traffic goes from my PC to router via Ethernet - and then hops to printer via wireless).
You may want to assign a fixed IP address for your printer from the router - just to make sure it does not change. If it changes - it may confuse your PC print driver, so fix it to be sure.
If it sounds complicated - don't worry - its not.

And Alexoiu post above seems to have provided a link with a description of how to do (from the title...I have not read it).
