I just installed a wireless pc card in my wife's computer
which runs on W98SE.
The main computer is running on Windows XP and I have
enables sharing in printers
I tried printing a test page on my wife computer but to
no avail. I get a message in the printer queue that the
printer needs user intervention.
What do I need to do?

Have you shared the printer on the computer to which it is connected? That
would be your first step, then on the XP machine go into Printers and Faxes,
select Add a new printer and Browse to the shared printer. You may need to
install drivers for the printer on XP before it'll work.
