How to Make My Printer Available for All Computers on My Wireless Network

1. Access the printer by going to the 'Start' menu, then going to the 'Control Panel,' then selecting the option for 'Printers.' Look through the list that appears and locate your attached printer. This should be simple if you have only ever used one printer, as it will be the only entry on the list.
2. Right-click on your printer to open up the various options for configuration. Select the option for 'Sharing.' Click on the checkbox that states 'Share this Printer' (or something to that effect), and press 'OK' to complete the process.
3. Reboot the printer, the computer attached to the printer, and all computers on the home network. Releasing, rebooting, and restoring computers to the network will place them all on the same proverbial 'page,' informing them that there is now a printer to be accessed at will.
