Printers Wireless Connection Via Router

Main Computer and printer are attached, with my router for my laptop to connect to the internet and also be able to print via my router connection, to print documents from my laptop? How do I make this connection without being attached to the printer? or, do I need to use the bluetooth connection to allow me to send a signal to my printer via the internet connection through my router?
