Two options -
1. connect the printer with a pc which is connected to a wireless network. Install the printer to the pc and make is 'shared'. Now any PC connected to the network, whether wirelessly or wired will be able to access the printer (the pc to which the printer is connected needs to be on and connected). Go to network places or network, chose the pc (the one to which the printer is connected) from the PCs that appear there, right click on the printer and choose connect. You may need to install the drivers for the printer on the wirelessly connected pc.
2.If you want to print to the printer over internet, google cloud print is a good option. Google 'google cloud print to a non compatible printer' to get the instructions on how to set that up.

your laptop is working wirelessly with the internet but for making the printer to use it wirelessly the printer should be also a wireless printer.

and if the printer is a wireless printer then you have to setup the connection in between the printer & laptop to work wirelessly.

You should only need one wireless router for everything. The purpose of the router is to "route" multiple devices together. Your set-up should be something like this:

Modem connected to wireless router via Ethernet cable.
Wireless router broadcasting wireless internet connection.
Computer(s) connected to wireless router via cable or wireless adapter.
Computer with network printer sharing enabled.
Turn on wireless printer.
You should be able to detect the printer via Windows.
