i have a wireless network in my house, 3 computers on it 2 desktops and a laptop. now one of the desktops has the hp all in one printer connected to it, is there a way to make that printer accesible to all other computers on the network that includes the other desktop downstairs and my laptop?

If it supports networking then you will be able to use all functions (scan, memory card download, fax) across the network by sharing it then installing the software (all in one) on each client computer. If you want to just print pictures, text, pdf's etc... Then you can just share it on the host computer then install the drivers on the other client computers. Read the help files to learn how to share the printer for the network for your specific OS.

If you have Macs, just enable Bonjour (one click) or Printer Sharing (one click).
