wireless network and printing

[here_is_gone]

I have a Compaq 5190 (very old desktop) which was running windows 98, but I put Ubuntu Linux on it. I also have a dell laptop and a dell desktop, both of which connect (wirelessly) to a Linksys wireless-g router. I want to hook up the compaq to the router and use it as a server. I'd also like to hook up a printer to the compaq and print wirelessly from the laptop and desktop. Can I do this? And if I can, how would I set it up? Thanks

Since you have the Compaq with Ubuntu on it, you will need to run a process called a "samba server"- which you will have to Google, because it's too detailed for a short post. Here is a good link
And yes, it is possible to print to the printer on the samba server (Ubuntu).
