I had prepared a fairly detailed reply about how to set up your
Airport to use a USB printer, then I noticed the "IP" in your
printer name and looked it up. The Canon PIXMA iP90v
has built-in wireless. If you go to <http://www.usa.canon.com/>
and look for the downloads for your printer, you can find
the latest setup utility and drivers.

Thank you David for the very informative response! She is getting the
signal from the wireless modem and using the WEP key printed on the
modem.
The ESSID is also the same as on the modem. I will remove the
airport bas=
e
station and see what happens; the base station then is not needed in
this
case, since she is getting a signal from the dsl modem.
She also has a small Canon PIXMA printer, iP90v. Everytime she
wants to
print she just takes the macbook and walks it to the printer and
connects t=
o
it via usb. Can the Airport base station be used in this case to get
the
printer to work wirelessly from the Macbook? Thanks again.
