Setting Up for Shared Printing
You can share your new printer on the network using the Drivers and Utilities
CD that comes with your printer, or using Microsoft® point-and-print or peer-to-
peer method. However, if you use one of the Microsoft methods, some features,
such as the status monitor and other printer utilities, installed with the Drivers
and Utilities CD, may not be available.
If you want to use the printer on a network, share the printer and install its
drivers on all the computers on the network.
NOTE: You need to purchase an Ethernet cable for shared printing.
