Instructions

1

Connect your printer to one of your network's computers.
2

Make sure the printer's drivers are up-to-date. If they're old, you can download new drivers from the printer manufacturer's website.
3

Launch the Control Panel on the main computer. The easiest way of doing this is by opening the Start Menu and clicking on its shortcut.
4

Open the "Printers" or "Printers and Other Hardware" window.
5

Right-click the printer you want to share over the network and select "Sharing..." from the drop-down menu that appears.
6

Switch to the "Sharing" tab and click on the button labeled "Change sharing options." Then, check the box next to the "Share this printer" option.
7

Create a network name for the printer, and enter it into the appropriate field. Make the name something you'll remember so you know which printer to access.
8

Click "OK" to save the changes and make the printer available over the wireless network.
