Browse My Network Places or Network Neighborhood. Find the host name of the server, and look for the shared

Peer method.
Install the Shared Printer on Client Computers

Point and Print

This method is the best use of system resources. The printer server handles driver modifications and print job processing. This
lets network clients return to their programs much faster.
If you use the Point and Print method, a subset of software information is copied from the print server to the client computer.
This is just enough information to send a print job to the printer.
1. On the Windows desktop of the client computer, double-click My Network Places or Network Neighborhood.
2. Double-click the host name of the print server computer.
3. Right-click the shared printer name, and then click Install or Connect.
Wait for the software information to copy from the print server computer to the client computer, and for a new printer
object to be added to the Printers folder. The time this takes varies, based on network traffic and other factors.
4. Close My Network Places or Network Neighborhood.
5. Print a test page to verify printer installation.
