Desktop: control panel panel/printers. Right-click on your printer. Sharing tab. Share the printer. Share the foilders you want the laptop to see. (Or just share the whole drive.)
Laptop: add a new printer. Network printer. If you don't see the printer, browse for it.
Share the folders you want the desktop to see.
