Sharing drives and printers
With a network, you can share drives (for example hard drives, diskette
drives, and CD or DVD drives) and printers among the computers
connected to the network.
After the drives and printers on each network computer are shared, you
can access them as though they were attached directly to your computer.
Then you can:
■View a network drive
■Open and copy files stored on other network computers
■Print documents on network printers

Turning on Windows file and printer sharing

Before you can share your drives and printers, you need to turn on
Windows file and printer sharing on all the network computers.
Important To share a printer among the network computers,
each computer must have the shared printer’s
drivers installed. Follow the instructions included
with your printer to install the printer drivers on
each computer.
