This section tells you how to set up your printer so that other
computers on a network can use it.
First, you need to set up the printer as a shared printer on the
computer to which the printer is connected. Then, you must
specify the network path to the printer from each computer that
will use it and install the printer software on those computers.
Note:
This section describes how to use your printer as a shared printer on a
network. To connect your printer directly to a network without setting
it up as a shared printer, consult your network administrator.
