Unable to share printer

I have a small home office with printer and file sharing that has always
worked. Now for some reason when I checked why I could not use the printer,
the sharing part is grayed out and will not allow me to hilight the allow
printer sharing on my wireless.
I am able to click this option on the PC but not on the wireless.
It has always been operable but for some reason this occurred last week.
Any ideas will be appreciated.

RE: Unable to share printer

Could be the configuration of the printer wireless server has been corrupted.
The config for the printer server must be identical to the wireless access
point.
