At home I have three airport express base stations creating a wireless
network. Two are "n" and one is "g". I've been using the "g" to share a
USB printer wirelessly with various computers. I'm not sure if this is
possible but I'd like to keep using it to share the printer and
simultaneously extend the network.

I haven't been able to find any up to date instructions on how to extend
the network, let alone share printing as well. Can anyone point me to a
web page that would help?

Hi Peter,

I am not sure what wireless router you have, but look for the WDS
option in the router configs or manual. If it is an Apple router look
at to following page:

Hop this helps,
