Can't print wirelessly with Bonjour for Windows with Apple Airport

I just replaced my outdated router with the Apple Airport Extreme Base Station.

You are supposed to be able to share a USB printer wirelessly by using Bonjour.

I have 4 PC's total, (2 desktops, 2 laptops).

The only PC that I have been able to print from is the desktop that is connected to the Airport itself.

I've installed Bonjour for Windows on the other PC's but it will not pick up the printer.

I called Apple support and they were completely no help since my PC's are not MAC's.

I've searched everywhere for a solution but have come up empty.

I've tried disabling the firewall and reinstalled and still nothing.

I am hoping that someone out there knows the solution.

The printer is a Lexmark F4235.

I would really appreciate the help since I'm ready to throw it out of the window already!

Thanks in advance.
