How to share printer connected to the Windows XP with Windows 7 computer

Original title: printer problem

I have a HP USB printer connected to a PC running XP.  My wife has a laptop and connects to my Internet connection through a router.  Is there a command in XP that will access the printer even though it is not wireless?  The laptop is running Windows 7 and using Microsoft Home and Business 2010, and therefore the PC.   I was told that it is a command, but can't find it.

Hi BudRamey,
 
Share the printer from Windows XP for use with Windows 7 as well.
 
See this link for more information on this operation:
 
Additional reference on:
 
Once you share the printer from the computer Windows XP, select the wizard file sharing and printers in Windows 7 as well.
 
Refer to the section "to turn on network discovery, file and sharing, printers and files public sharing under Windows 7" from the link given below to do the same thing.
