OK, they are both on the same home network but now it says that the desktop is not available for connection (permissions) and now it says that the network path isn't found.

I really should know how to do this

Yeah, it should be easy but for some reason printer networking breaks easily with Windows.

I just bought a switch and have a spare ethernet cable hooked up to it and on the rare occasion I need to print from my laptop I plug it in for a couple minutes to send the job.
