How To Share Printers
After following steps 1-5 on page 15, double-click on your My Computer icon. Click on the Printers folder. A window of available printers will appear. Using your right mouse button, click once on the printer that you want to share with other users. Click on Sharing, fol- lowed by the Sharing tab. Click on Share As. In the Share Name box, give a name to the printer you're about to share (Jack's HP4, for example). If you want to assign a password to the printer so only certain users can access it, type a password in the Password box. When you're done, click on the Apply button, followed by OK. Your printer(s) are now shared.
When you're finished, restart your PC, log into your net- work, and double-click on Network Neighborhood. You should be able to se the other computers on your net- work. The installation is complete.
Note: Some printers may require extra steps or drivers to be shared on the network. Some printers are not net- workable. Consult your printer’s documentation or con- tact your printer’s manufacturer for more information.
