Because most of the time when working on most of my friends computer it’s at my house. Was wondering why not try to fix it remotely he is on one end an I’m on the other end. I live in the country when I say across the street I mean not walking distance across the street.
That's a good clue that...

The distance is too far for the wifi to work proper.

You can share your printer from Windows (but I won't detail how because such is on the internet.) I like printer servers but there are many to choose from.
Some like Network Magic (see google) since it makes the sharing setup nearly painless.

Hi,
The most simple way to do this is to go to www.logmein.com
First on your computer go to logmein.com and create a username and download "logmein free", after you did this on your pc, go to your friend's pc and visit the site again and login under your the same username, you will be taken to "My Computers" On this screen on your right it says Add Computer. Click this and install the program. Now go back to your pc and sign in again to logmein, now under My Computers you should see your friends pc, click on it. After you are connected you should see Remote Control on teh left side, click on it and you should be able to see your friends desktop, you can control the whole pc from this program.
Good Luck, and hope this helps!
