WTB/ADVICE Equipment for connecting printer to wireless router

I have a wireless ADSL router (Netgear DG834GTUK) and have ADSL connected to 
the WAN port.  I have 3 laptops with wireless cards which happily connect to 
the wireless router.

I also have a printer (HP 4550 colour laser) with a jetdirect printer server 
card with 100MB LAN connection.  My laptops can print directly to it when I 
have the printer connected directly (ethernet cable) to the router.

Problem is that I want the printer to be in a different room and the wired 
connection is not possible.

Can someone advise me on how I can make the printer connect to the router 
wirelessly.

If anyone has such a device for sale please mail me details including price.

Many Thanks in advance

Roy

Connect a wireless access point, via ethernet, to the print server and 
configure it as a bridge.
