Working with shared printers

EasyNetwork detects the printers that are shared by the
computers on the network. If EasyNetwork detects a remote
printer that is not connected to your computer, the
network printers link appears in the Shared Files window when
you open EasyNetwork for the first time. You can then install
available printers or uninstall printers that are already connected
to your computer. You can also refresh the list of printers to
ensure that you are viewing up-to-date information.
If you have not joined the managed network but are connected to
it, you can access the shared printers from the Windows printer
control panel.
