I have a HP desk top a6547c with W7 and connected to a HP printer L7680 all in one. I would like to connect my IBM think pad with xp to the printer also. How can I do it? I do not have a install disc for XP only vista. Thanks for any help.

sharing the printer on the W7 machine and going to Add a Printer, Network, entering its shared name and choosing it on the IBM Thinkpad?

I bought a simple printer sharing device. It has 4 USB ports in (to connect to up to 4 PC/laptops) an one USB out to connect to one printer).
