You'd need a print server to connect it directly to your router. They aren't cheap ($60 - $100), and most home type print servers are very fussy in my experience.

The cheaper/easier way is just to attach it to one of your computers and share it. Just install it on one computer, then follow the Network Setup Wizard in Control Panel of Win XP.
