Setting Up a Sharp Printer on a Network
By sharing your Sharp printer on a computer network, you allow every user on the network to use that printer. They won't have to transfer a document to a main computer in order to print--any print-capable program that they use will be able to use the Sharp printer to create a hard copy of that document. To set up a Sharp printer on a network, you just have to perform a few steps on the computer to which the printer is actually connected.
