Setting Up a Centralized Printer

If you connect a printer to the USB port on GoFlex Home, everyone on your GoFlex Home
network storage system can share it and wirelessly print from a central location.
Note: This section describes the basic steps to add a USB printer to GoFlex Home. For more
information and complete instructions for your specific computer, refer to the documentation
that came with your operating system. (Search for information about sharing a printer,
connecting to a network printer, or connecting to an Internet or intranet printer.)
