PC1)
At this point, you can access any of the other computers and see what
folders they have shared. If you don’t see any computer but your own, just
wait a few minutes and refresh your screen. If you don’t see other computers,
then it’s time to troubleshoot the network problems.
Printer Sharing
One of the primary reasons that networks were developed was to
allow groups of computer users to share peripheral devices such as printer.
Sharing a single printer among a group of users costs much less than buying
a printer for each computer.
Low-cost printers usually require a separate print server to allow
network connectivity because these printers do not have built-in network
interfaces. The computer that is connected to the printer can serve as the
print server. Most personal computer operating systems have built-in printer
sharing capability.
Setting up printer sharing is simple with Windows XP. The following
steps enable a computer to share a printer:
All the computers that use the shared printer must have the correct
drivers installed. Drivers for other operating systems can be installed on the
print server.
To connect to the printer from another computer on the network,
choose Start > Printers and Faxes > Add Printer. The Add Printer Wizard
appears. Follow the steps using the wizard.
