Sharing the printer
This section describes how to share the printer on an AppleTalk 
network.
The computers on the network can share the printer that is

print server.

Use the Printer Sharing setting, which is a standard feature of Mac 
OS X 10.2 or later.
This feature is not available with Mac OS X 10.1.
