It is possible to share most printers with the other computers in a network.Answer:It depends on your particular printer and what you are trying to do. Many printers today can print pictures directly from camera memory cards.

The TCP/IP protocol allows each computer to "see" the other computers on the network, and share files and printers. When computers connect on the same network, it is called a local area network, or LAN .
It allows computers to "talk" each other in network.
Routers, Access Points, Printers... Every device you will need to access sooner or later...computer can stay with Dynamic IP's since they should show their name in network, but routers, access points, printers, while they may show its not guaranteed.
Yes, you can connect one printer to each computer and connect both computers on a local network, then install the network printer from each other's computer. Or you can give printer servers to two different printers.
There are many advantages to connect devices and computers to a network. One advantage is sharing a printer over a network. You can print from several different computers with only on printer and that saves the hassle of transferring files and pictures back and forth to print them the expense of purchasing multiple printers. Also you can share certain files and documents on a network.
