• 2). Select "Printers and Other Hardware" and then click on "Printers and Faxes" to view all the printers connected to the host computer.
  
  
• 3). Double click the icon corresponding to the printer you want to share over your WiFi network. Remember that Internet access is not necessary, as computers can connect to a local WiFi network for local file and printer access, even without an active connection to the Internet.
  
  
• 4). Click "Share This Printer" to enable printer sharing. Click "OK."
  
  
• 5). Right click on the printer icon in the "Printers and Faxes" window, and select "Properties." Click the "Sharing" tab, check to option to "Share Name" and click "OK." This ensures that other printers on the network can locate the networked printer by using the assigned name used on the host computer.
