Best Answer

Connect your printer to one of computers, and share it for all computers in your network. Or if your printer has its own network interface, connect it directly to the router and use it (you might have to configure it for your network settings).

How does a printer communicate with the PC?

Its a heavy duty to answer this question because it concerns many fields, however, this brief description for the logic of PC-Printer communications " Hopefully ". A printer is connected to the computer through the Parallel Port ( Eventhough some new technologies use the Serial Port, but I will discuss the Parallel one). Lets take a task of printing certain text that is assigned to a printer to print, first of all, the PC checks whether or not the printer is online using a signal from the printer it self tells the PC that she is online, secondly, the PC signals back the printer to let it know that a printing task is on the way so the printer will begin reading incoming Bits, if the printer is able to print then task is done, so it signals back the PC announcing printing completion, otherwise if the printer is out of paper or there is an error, it will give certain signals that indicate the printer's status. for expert IT people, the PC uses 8 lines that carry out 5 Volt each, the printer listens to the voltage in every line, if exists, then it is 1, if not, then its 0, and the PC listens to 5 lines carry out 5 Volt each from the printer to the PC, if 5 Volt exists then its 1 , otherwise its 0. So the PC uses 8 bits to transfer data to the printer and the printer uses 5 bits to provide the PC with its status. MasO: The Code Hunter

What do you need to hook up a printer?

If your laptop has a usb and the printers cable is usb then you just hook it up like a regular CPU. There are also wireless capabilities in many laptops and printers. My suggestion is that you look at your laptop's user manual and also the printer's manual and take it from there. Good Luck.
