Setting Up Your Printer on a Network
For Windows
Sharing the printer
This section describes how to share the printer on a standard
Windows network.
The computers on a network can share a printer that is directly
connected to one of them. The computer that is directly connected
to the printer is the print server, and the other computers are the
clients which need permission to share the printer with the print
server. The clients share the printer via the print server.
According to the versions of Windows OS and your access rights
on the network, perform the appropriate settings of the print
server and clients.
