Sharing the printer
If your computer is connected to a network, you can make your directly connected printer available to
other computers on the same network.
1.
Double-click the System Preferences icon on the Dock menu bar on your desktop.
2.
To enable printer sharing, go Sharing, select Printer Sharing, and then check the printer(s)
that you want to share.
3.
Your printer now automatically appears in the list of shared printers displayed by any other
computer running Mac OS X and connected to your local network.
Please bear in mind the following considerations.
●
Any other users wishing to share your printer must install the printer software on their own
computers.
●
Anyone sharing your directly connected printer will be able to send print jobs, but will not be able
to receive information from the printer—which affects alerts, status reports, paper management,
administration and troubleshooting.
●
You may find that sharing your directly connected printer with other users will slow down your
computer unacceptably.
TIP:
The best way to share the printer over a network is to connect the printer not to any computer,
but to the network. See
Connect a computer to the printer by network (Mac OS X) on page 17
