It's the router which will prompt for the security key but that will pop up automatically the first time you try to access. Afterwards it should log in automatically. Share your printer from Control Panel / Printers and Faxes on the machine physically connected to the printer. In that printer's properties click the Sharing tab and you'll easily figure it out from there. Could require a restart to get it working across the network... Note: the machine physically connected to the printer will have to be turned on for any other machine to print to that printer...
