server needs to be installed on any and all machines you want to ssh TO.  Server is the component/daemon that listens for a request to connect.

guess what I just found out.... openssh-server wasn't installed  on the laptop. So I installed it and now  netstat has the same line on it that says port 22

However, I still can't ssh to the ubuntu. But I scan ssh from  the ubuntu to the mint. Yipee!

Yes I could. I could ssh from the laptop to the ubuntu (printserver) until I issued the command ' sudo ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0' on the ubuntu on the advice of my google search. Then I tried to delete it and add the proper route (192.168.0.1) but that didn't help any.

I'm not sure what you want here. Here is the file:
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
passwd: compat
group: compat
shadow: compat
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
networks: files
protocols: db files
services: db files
ethers: db files
rpc: db files
netgroup: nis

I don't see any deny rules in my iptables.
