Sharing the printer

NOTE:

Printer sharing between users is supported under Mac OS X 10.2 and later.

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.

Enable printer sharing by going to Sharing > Services > Printer Sharing.

3.

Your printer now automatically appears in the list of shared printers displayed by any other
computer running Mac OS and connected to your local network.

NOTE:

Any other users wishing to share your printer must install the printer software on their

own computers.

Any other users 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 printer alerts, printer status reports,
paper management, printer administration and troubleshooting.

Mac OS 10.2 users need to enable the Show printers connected to other computers option
in the Print Center Preferences window in order to see shared printers. To open the Print Center
Preferences window, select Preferences from the Print Center menu.

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 to a network (Mac OS) on page 14
