Starting and stopping printer sharing

Starting and stopping printer sharing

You set printer sharing in the Properties dialog box of the printer you’re configuring. Press and hold or right-click the icon of the printer you want to configure, and then tap or click Manage Sharing. This opens the printer’s Properties dialog box with the Sharing tab selected. You can use this tab to change the name of a network printer and to start sharing or stop sharing a printer. Printer sharing tasks that you can perform include the following:

? Sharing a local printer (thus making it a network printer) To share a printer, select Share This Printer, and then specify a name for the shared resource in the Share Name text box. Tap or click OK when you have finished.

? Changing the shared name of a printer To change the shared name, just enter a new name in the Share Name text box, and then tap or click OK.

? Stopping the sharing of a printer To quit sharing a printer, clear the Share This Printer check box, and then tap or click OK.
