Windows NT Shared Printer Driver

Windows 95/98 print clients can share the printer with networked computers running Windows NT 4.0 and having a parallel connection to the printer. This requires that the PostScript printer driver be installed on the Windows NT computer and that the driver be configured for sharing. Print clients then can use the network to install the PostScript printer driver from the Windows NT computer.
