How to share printers under Win7?

A company usually has a limited number of printers. It is impossible to configure one-to-one. If you can share a printer with several computers, you can fully utilize the hardware. Utilization has also achieved the purpose of resource sharing. Before the small series introduced how to open the file and printer sharing under Win7, today I will introduce how to share the printer between the two computers under Win7.

Sharing settings as follows:

1, by providing the open firewall & ldquo; file and printer sharing & rdquo ;. Go to “Control Panel”-> quo;System Security”-> Windows Firewall”->&#""Allowed Programs>, check the list that allows programs to communicate through Windows Firewall “File and Print Sharing”.

2, add and set up printer sharing. Open “Control Panel", go to "Hardware and Sound"->"> Devices & Printers> If you don't find the printer at this time, you will need to add a printer. To do this, click on “Add Printer”, select “Local Printer” in the pop-up window, click Next, select “Printer Interface Type”, select USB interface here (this is based on the model of the printer) To decide), select and click Next, select the driver, if the required driver is not in the list, you need to select "Install from disk", locate the driver directory and install the corresponding driver. When the driver is installed, print the test page. If the printer prints normally, the printer driver is successfully installed.
