On each machine, right click My Computer, go to Properties, give the machines different names and set them to the same workgroup. Also run the network setup wizard, and reboot the machines. This commonly fixes the problem with My Network Places and PCs showing up. The router's assigned DHCP addresses should be as if each machine is on the same subnet.. eg; 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, etc.

As far as the printer, is it a network printer? once you plug an ethernet cable in and it aquires an IP address; you can add the printer to any machine, even wireless, by adding TCP/IP Port (printers IP) and viola.

It should work well

Goodluck
