I have 2 computers connected to a wirelless router and is using internet without any problems. I also have 2 printers connected to each computer. Now i need want to share files on these two computers and also share the printer. That is, if I wanted to print using the printer connected to another computer, how do I go about doing this?

Go to the Network Setup Wizard in your control panel.

How expereianced are you with computers? It's not real easy..... OK... On both computers go to the control panel and click one "PRINTERS AND SCANNERS" ( You have to do this on each computer) Right click on the printer and look for "Sharing" click on the "Share this printer" give it a name if you want like Printer 1 if you like. do the same on the other computer. Then Click "Apply". and go from there. Make sure you have you folders "



shared" and your network is secure!! WPA or WEP at least! Make sure your computers have the same network or workgroup name As in "my Network" or "MSHOME". Whatever you want ,just have to be the same!! You should be able to go to "MY NETWORK PALACES" and then "look" for each computer on the network then search for the printers. Click on them one at a time and you computer will tell you it will need to install drivers for each one and follow from there. See ! Not hard at all!! Yes I mossed some stuff but I figure you can figure it out or someone with correct me. Hey I've been awake for 33 hrs!!
If you are running Windows XP, the easiest way to do this is through the Network Setup Wizard under Control Panel -%26gt; Network Connections.
you should enable "file and printer sharing" on both computers.



that should work if you could ping each other's IP address
well if ur printers are bluetooth enabled, u can set them for sharing in the Networking Wizard if u are using XP or Vista. well that should work unless u might have to make an wired connection between the computers.
