I wasn't too sure whether this topic would fit into any sub sections on Daniweb at all, but I'm very confused right now.
I have a HP Laserjet 3015 Multifunctional - but i'm sure the name of the printer shouldn't matter. I downloaded the software drivers for the printer about an hour ago, and used this site.

What I want to do with my printer is be able to print from upstairs (the printer is in the office downstairs) without having to bring the printer physically and connect it to my computer with a USB. I followed this site's instructions and it didn't work.
Is there any help I can get? I don't really want to bring my computer (laptop) downstairs because i've had it for a few years and as expected, the battery-life is poor.
Some useful info before anyone answers:
I'm running on Windows XP
I have a cable internet (broadband) and NO WIRELESS
If moire info is needed, i'm happy to tell :)
Thanks DaniWeb, you've helped me a lot with past computer problems before.
