How can I print documents RIGHT NOW on my home wireless printer in North Carolina, when I am let's say in Huntington, WV in a hotel (with my laptop......and NO I do not have a home computer hooked up, just a wireless router and wireless printer)?

that uses "ePrint" or you have some way of accessing your home network via VPN (or some other method), then I would suggest that this is not going to happen.

(NT) What's a VPN? What is "ePrint"?

You don't have them so it doesn't help here.

And let's start over. Unless you set all this up before you left, it won't happen.
PS. When you get back home, articles to review.

I don't think that would work, I do NOT have a computer hooked up to my home network 24-7 (just a wireless router and wireless printer)
Then check out ePrint capable printers.

VPN = Virtual Private Network. A connection, usually secured, from a remote computer to another network.
ePrint = A service offered by HP and Epson where a remote user (you) sends a document from their computer to a server at HP or Epson.
From there, that server contacts your ePrint capable printer, which is connected to the internet through your home network, and sends the document to the printer.
Requires an ePrint capable printer.
