Setting Up Your Printer on a Network
For Users of Windows Me, 98, and 95
This section tells you how to set up your printer so that other
computers on a network can use it.
First, you need to set up the printer as a shared printer on the
computer to which the printer is connected. Then, you must add
the printer to each computer that will access it through the
network.
Note:

network. To connect your printer directly to a network without setting
it up as a shared printer, consult your network administrator.
