Hello I have in a room two computers well I also have an internet connectio on both of them well , and I have a one printer in my romm my friend in a room want to do so that one printer share and we can print documents from one printer (two computer share one printer. we ( two computers) have no network connections with each other , how can I do to share one printer?????? Thanks very much

To open the Printers and Faxes folder • Click Start and then click Control Panel. • Click Printers and Other Hardware, and then click Printers and Faxes. • In the Printers and Faxes folder, I clicked the printer's icon and, in the tasks pane, I clicked Share This Printer. • I opened the printer's Properties dialog box, and clicked on the Sharing tab. • I clicked Share Name, and then clicked OK. That's it—the printer was immediately available for other computers to use. Now that I had a network printer, I was ready to connect to it and print from other computers on the network. To connect to the printer • I opened Control Panel, and clicked Printers and Other Hardware. • I clicked Add a Printer. • Instead of adding a local printer, though, I clicked Printer Connection and then browsed the network for the printer.

"Instead of adding a local printer, though, I clicked Printer Connection and then browsed the network for the printer." ---But he/she said: "we ( two computers) have no network connections with each other , how can I do to share one printer??????" There apparently is a way to do it online: http://askbobrankin.com/share_a_pri...

If it is a parallel port printer and both computer have parallel ports either an automatic printer share switch or a manual switch. I'm not sure if there is a USB equivalent.
