Hi Diane. You could use the glass bookcase for your printer. Put a couple baskets on the other glass shelves to store printer paper, ink, and all printer needs. Put your computer on the desk. If you have a lot of files, you will need the other file cabinet in order to stay organized. You will also need to get a desk chair. And a working task lamp would help.
Here are some images, it would be easier to advise if we can see you desk. They are many different ones.

Hi Diane! Can you share a photo so that I can answer your question appropriately? Thank you!
Sell the Vintage desk to someone who appreciates Vintage as it is, and buy yourself a Computer desk with Hutch and chair with the Amount you get.
To be honest, if your existing sink is modest and old, it would probably be cheaper and easier to replace it. Painting it is not easy and probably not permanent.
