How to Connect a Dell 946 Printer to a Network
The Dell 946 is an older-model printer that will still function adequately as your primary network printing solution. Connecting your Dell 946 to your network is accomplished in two stages--connecting the printer to one of the network computers, then sharing it across the network. This can generally be done in around 10 to 20 minutes.
