Printers (in Windows XP, click Start, and then click Printers and

2. In the Printers window (in Windows XP, the Printers and Faxes

window), click the printer icon.

3. On the File menu, click Set As Default (Windows 98/Me) or Set as

Default Printer (Windows 2000/XP).

You may be using your computer and the printer connected to your

computer in an environment where multiple computers are connected by

a network. In this case, you can share the use of your printer with the

other computers on the network.
