Re: Printer on 3 copmputer
You need to get a cheap hub and network the computers. Then just share the
printer as a shared resource on one of the computers. "Arno and Triny" <> wrote in message news:402bb1f0$0$19704$ u... > Hi, > > Looking to put one printer link to 3 computer.How do I do that with USB > port? > > Thanks > > Arnaud > > |

I have my three computers networked together and can acess my printer, hooked to the USB port of my main computer, from all three computers. Just make sure after you get your network up and running to setup the printer for sharing. |
