Setting up a network printer.

Bill Tonti

I have 3 computers all running win XP SP2. All
computers are hooked up to a cable modem /
wired/wireless router. I have an additional MAC running
OS 10.3. Two of the windows computers have printers
attached. I woyuld like to network these printers to all
the machines.

Any ideas how to enable this?

Presently I do NOT have to sign on to XP with a password.

on each computer with attached printer,
Open "Printer & Faxes" (on the Start menu)
right-click on the printer you want to share, select "Sharing", click "share
this printer", assign a name, click ok

to see the shared printer,
Open "Printers & Faxes"
douible-click on "add Printer"
select network printer
browse for a printer
