Install the Printer Driver and Cable the Printer
Some USB printer manufacturers (for example, HP and Lexmark) request that you do
not connect the USB cable until the installation software prompts you to do so.
To install the driver and cable the printer:
1. On each computer on your network that shares the USB printer, install the driver
software for the USB printer.
If you cannot find the printer driver, contact the printer manufacturer.
2. Use a USB printer cable to connect the USB printer to a cable modem router USB
port.
