How to reconnect to share printer

Our wireless laptops(XP) used a shared printer on a Window2000 desktop. Occassionally, the laptops is unable to connect to the printer (probably due to weak wireless signal). Is there a way to re-connect to the printer without re-booting the laptops ?

Might consider putting the host and ip information in a hosts file that is copied to all machines. This will take care of name resolution but won't fix the weak wireless signal
