It should just work.

Check the printer's user manual - you probably need to set up an IP address for the printer (assuming an Ethernet/TCP/IP network) on each workstation that needs to access the printer.

There are about five~seven steps involved, and you will need some info, such as printer IP address and printer name (both of which you assign), as well as the manufacturer's drivers for your particular operating system.
