What wireless connections to use?

I have these two Netgear products: Router DGND3300v2 and Access Point WG602v4. I got the access point recently as the wireless signal was weak a few yards inside our house.

I have the router in a room at the front, and have a wireless portable PC there as well as a hard-wired desktop and a wireless-linked printer, etc. Over the rest of the house there are a few wireless portable machines.

I would expect that the printer and the portable in the router room would be driven wirelessly off the router and the remote portables off the access point. First can this be done? Second what configuration is best: Access Point, Repeater, Client, etc. (I have read the manual and the various information documents but am not much wiser.)
