You haven't given enough information about your setup to give a definitive 
answer, but:

 If your wireless laptop is connecting to a wireless router (not simply an 
access point) that also has (wired) Ethernet inputs AND your desktop is 
connected to that router, it's not a problem sharing the printer-- and sharing 
files between the two systems.

In that case, it's no different from printer sharing on a wired network. (See 
the networking tutorial on my website).
