Tee's got it. Go to System Preferences and pick the Sharing folder in
the Internet and Network sub group, click on Services and then check
Printer Sharing, this same preference pane will also allow you to
Personal File Share (your computers are not 'seeing' each other) and
windows file share. I use all three. In the Hardware sub group is as
Tee has mentioned Print and Fax, check the share printers box. You
should be able to do everything you are taking about I think.
