Default Setting up a LAN and printer

I apologize if ythis is not the correct forum. Here is my problem. I have my
ISP connected to a CISCO 1700 series router (cat5) which in turn feeds a
Catalyst 2900 switch which connects to multiple laptops/desktops via cat5
cables. One of the cat5 cable connections out of the 2900 is connected to a
D-Link D-524 wireless router which in turn is connected to a desktop computer
via cat5 cable. The desktop is connected to a Brother printer via a USB
printer cable (so we all can print via the LAN). The D-Link also connects to
the printer via a cat5 cable. So if your wireless (i.e. a laptop) you can
print also. However I cannot get the printer to print via the LAN or Wireless
from any computer. I believe the IP addresses are set correctly but maybe
someone can give me some pointers on what to check. Any help would be
appreciated. Scott

It's not, this group, as the name implies, is for questions relating to
Microsoft Office and the people who hang out here are primarily
knowledgeable in that field.

Repost the question to one of the groups with networking in the name
and you'll have a much better chance of getting an answer.

I'd also suggest you use a newsreader to do so, Outlook Express can be
configured as a newsreader.
