About the shared printer
This section describes how to share the printer on an AppleTalk 
network.
The computers on the network can share the printer that is 
directly connected to one of them. The computer that is directly 
connected to the printer is the printer server, and the other 
computers are the clients which need permission to share the 
printer with the printer server. The clients share the printer via 
the printer server.
Note:
Printer sharing function can be used in Mac OS 8.1 to 9.X.
