Windows XP: Sharing a printer It is possible to put a printer on the network and share it with all computers in the house equipped with a WiFi adapter. To access a printer on the network, the printer must be set up for sharing on the computer where it is connected and installed. On the computer connected to the printer: 1. Click Start/Control Panel/Printers and Other Hardware/ Printers and Faxes. Right-click the printer and select Sharing. In the Sharing tab, select the Share this printer radio button and enter a name for your printer. Give the printer a name that is unique and sufficiently distinctive, making it easy to recognize (my-printer or home laser printer, for example). If one of your computers is running Windows 98 SE, we recommend that the sharing name not exceed 12 characters (without spaces) in order to ensure its compatibility with this operating system. Click Apply, then OK.
