Networking Parallel and USB Printers

S

Steve Forrestor

Help... Please!

I have:
o 2 PCs: One Win98 and one WinXP
o 2 Printers: A Parallel HP LaserJet 4L and a USB HP DeskJet 882c
o 1 4-port Network Anywhere (by LinkSys) NR041 Router

How do I connect the 2 printers to the router so both PCs can print to them?

Is this the best way to "network" this mess?

Thanks!

Connect them to your PCs and enable File and Printer sharing. Then share
them. Depending on how the drivers are written, it might work.
