Help connecting wireless printer to a new wireless network?

So, I have an HP Officejet 4860 Wireless All-in-One Printer. Due to damage to our old router, we needed to purchase a new router and create a new wireless network using Linksys. Now, the printer doesn’t recognize this new router, but my Apple iBook G4 does. How can I get the printer to recognize this new wireless network? Thanks guys!

Wireless network card with Ethernet?

It is time for me to buy a new computer.

Among other peculiarities, I am torn between being wired or being wireless.

My big question right now is if I get a wireless card (the one that I am looking at from hp customize store doesn’t specify)…Can I still plug the ethernet wire into my computer for connectivity?

I have an HP NX 7400. Connect to broadband internet via an ethernet connection. Upon switching off the modem or disconnecting the ethernet cable manually without disconnecting the internet connection, the laptop hangs and needs to reboot.

Are network cards (i.e. ethernet) for a PC compatible or do I need to find one specific for my computer?

I have an HP Pavilion and the LAN stopped working (I hooked up my laptop directly to the router and it works, so the router is fine) so I’m pretty sure the network card in my pc failed. I’ve never replaced one, and am hoping I can just go to Best Buy, CC, etc and grab one for cheap.

How do I add a printer to a wireless network?

We have 2 computers, a desktop (Dell running XP) and a laptop (Compaq running Vista). The HP deskjet printer is currently attached to the desktop. How can I get it so I can print from the laptop over the wireless network. I have a Netgear router. I tried using the sharing options on Windows, but it lets me choose the printer, but nothing ever prints. Help?
