Is there a way to connect a linksys router to my printer then wirelessly connect that to my main router and print off the main router. I really need this to work so anyone who has any experience with these issues help me please!

why would you want to do this with a router..

 

just get a raspberry pi 3, toss raspbian on it, and you're good to go.

i"d rather not spend money. I have a linksys wrtg54s and a pace router supplied with my internet service. I just want to use the linksys as a bridge for  the print service to be accessible by the home router

It might not be able to on the default firmware. You might need to look in to DDWRT if the router is compatible. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.
