Printing from a Network Computer by Sharing the 
Printer on a Network
When you share this printer on a network, you can use it as a network printer, 
which enables printing from other computers that are not directly connected to this 
printer.
If this printer is going to be used by multiple computers on a network, perform the 
following configuration. In this manual, the computer directly connected to the 
printer is called print server, and the other computers which use the printer via the 
network are called clients.
*If the print server is running Windows Vista, you cannot download and install the driver on Windows 98/Me.

with the client computers, and you will need to use the following method to clear that 
bloc k.
