About Sharing the Multifunction Printer on a Network

Locally-shared Printer

You can connect the multifunction printer directly to a selected computer, which is called the "host computer" on the network. The multifunction printer can then be shared by other users on the network through a Windows® 98, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista®, Windows Server® 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows NT 4.0 network printer connection.

Wired Network-connected Printer

Your multifunction printer has a built-in network interface. For details, see "Connecting the Multifunction Printer to the Network".

Printing Across a Network

Whether the multifunction printer is locally connected or network-connected, you need to install the Dell™ Multifunction Color Laser Printer 3115cn software on each computer that prints documents using the multifunction printer.
