Sharing the Printer on a Network
This section describes how to set up the machine for use as a network printer.
The shared printer can be used by computers on the network.
To change printer properties in the [Printer] folder, you must have Manage Printers permission. Log on to the file server as an Administrators or member of the PowerUsers group to acquire this permission.
From the [Start] menu, open the [Printers] window.
Under Windows XP or Windows Server 2003/2003 R2/2008, the [Printers and Faxes] window appears.
Click the printer icon you want to use. On the [File] menu, click [Properties].
The printer properties appears.
On the [Sharing] tab, click [Shared as:].
To share the printer with users using a different version of Windows, click [Additional Drivers...].
Omit this step if you have installed an alternative driver by selecting [Shared as:] during the printer driver installation.
Click [OK], and then close the printer properties.
