Windows NT 4.0 (Administrator)
Sharing Tab
1. Not Shared/Shared
Select whether to display or share this printer with other computers.
2. Share Name
Specify the name of the shared printer. The displayed name can be used as is or a new name may be
entered. The name specified here will be displayed when other users view information about the printer
on the network.
3. Alternate Drivers (See Note 1)
Allows other operating systems' printer drivers to be loaded. When users of these operating systems
connect to the printer, the printer driver is automatically loaded.
NOTE
1. When sharing a printer on the network, the print driver needs to be installed on the print server
only; and other computers will automatically copy and use that driver.
For this reason, the print server must be ready with printer drivers for all the operating systems
of all the computers that will be sharing the printer.
