Do you have a printer at home that’s connected to one computer and whenever you need to print from another computer at home, you have to email yourself the file and then download it on the other computer just to print it!??!你有一台打印機，在家裡的連接到一台電腦，而當你需要打印從另一台電腦在家裡，你要自己的電子郵件檔案，然後下載它放在其它電腦只是為了打印出來！ ？ ？ ！ Well if you have that problem and would like to be able to print from any computer in your house, then here are the steps to doing it!如果你有問題，並希望能夠以打印從任何一台計算機在你的房子，那麼這裡是步驟做！

First thing are requirements: In order to print from anywhere in the house, all the computer have to be connected to the same network, which means either connected to the same router by wire or you need to have a wireless network setup in your house.第一件事是要求：以打印隨時隨地在眾議院中，所有的電腦都必須連接到同一網絡，這意味著無論是連接到同一路由器通過有線或你需要一個無線網絡安裝在你的房子。 That way all the computers can see each other on the network, otherwise if the computers cannot communicate, then there can’t be any sharing!這樣，所有的電腦可以看到對方的網絡，否則，如果電腦無法溝通，那麼就不可能有任何分享！

Step 1: First you need to make sure all the computers are in the same Workgroup.步驟1 ：首先，你必須確保所有計算機都在同一工作組中使用。 A workgroup is a Windows term that basically means a group of computers that have something in commom and can communicate together.工作群組是一個Windows來說，基本上是指一組電腦，有一些常見和可以溝通在一起。 So to make sure all the computers are in the same group, you need to click on Start, and then Control Panel.所以，以確保所有計算機都在同一組中，你需要點擊開始，然後控制面板。 Once you are there, click Switch To Classic View in the upper left corner.一旦你有，點擊切換到經典視圖左上角。 Now click on the System icon.現在點擊系統圖標。 Click on the Computer Name tab.單擊計算機名稱選項卡。 Click the Change button at the bottom of the dialog box.點擊變更按鈕在底部的對話框。

You should see this:你應該可以看到這樣的：

There are two options listed here: Member of Domain (usually for corporate offices) and Workgroup (which is what we need to use for home).有兩種選擇，在這裡列出：會員的域（通常為公司辦公室）和工作組（這是什麼，我們需要使用家用） 。 Select Workgroup and type in a name to describe your home network, something short like HOME.專責工作組，並鍵入一個名稱來形容你的家庭網絡中，一些短期想回家。 Remember, you can’t put any spaces or symbols into the name and this is preferable because you want it to be easy to remember!記住，你不能把任何空格或符號納入名下，這是可取的，因為你想讓它很容易記住！

Once you type in the name, click OK and then OK again and Windows will ask you to restart the computer for the changes to take effect.一旦你輸入姓名，按確定，然後再確定和Windows將要求你重新啟動電腦，為使更改生效。 Go ahead and do this.你儘管做到這一點。 In the meantime you can do these same steps for the other computers in your house that you want to connect to the printer.在此期間，你可以做這些相同的步驟，為其它計算機上你的房子，你想連接到打印機。

Now that all the comptuers are in the same group, let’s get to actually sharing the printer.現在所有comptuers都是在同一組，讓我們去，實際上共享打印機。 Go to the comptuer that the printer is connected to and click on Start and then Printers and Faxes:去到comptuer表示打印機連接，並點擊開始，然後在打印機和傳真：

Next, you should see an icon for the printer in the list.接下來，你應該可以看到一個圖標為打印機在名單上。 Right-click on the printer icon and select Properties.右鍵單擊打印機圖標，並選擇屬性。 On the dialog box, select the Sharing tab:關於對話框中，選擇共享選項卡：

Click the Share this printer radio button and type in a name for the share name.點擊分享此打印機單選按鈕，並鍵入一個名稱為共享名稱。 The share name is basically what you want the name to be when others look at the printer from their computers.所佔的名字，基本上是你想要的名字，當別人看打印機從自己的計算機。 Again, here you need to type a short name with no spaces or symbols, something like HPHome or HPPrint is fine.再次，在這裡，您需要輸入短名稱與不加空格或符號，像hphome或hpprint是好的。

Click OK and you’ll see the printer icon looks a different now:單擊確定，你會看到打印機圖標看起來現在情況有所不同：

This means that the printer is currently being shared and now we will be able to find it from the other computers.這意味著打印機，目前正在分享，現在我們將能夠找到它從其他計算機。 However, before we go to the other computers, we need one more piece of information from the comptuer that is connected to the printer: the name of the computer.不過，在我們去到其他電腦上，我們需要多一個片資料，從comptuer是連接到打印機：電腦的名稱。

If you don’t know the name of the computer, you can follow these steps: Click on Start and then Run.如果你不知道電腦的名稱，你可以按照下列步驟進行：點擊開始，然後再運行。

Then when the Run dialog comes up, type in CMD and click OK:那麼當運行對話框的時候，鍵入CMD公司並單擊確定：

This will bring up the Command Prompt window and at the prompt, type in the word “hostname” without the quotes and press Enter:這會帶來了命令提示符窗口，並在提示，鍵入字的"主機"沒有尋獲，並按下Enter ：

This is the name of your computer.這是名字您的電腦。 You’ll need this later on when we try to connect from the other computers to this one.你需要這個後來當我們嘗試連接從其它計算機，以這一個。 Ok, so now we can go to Computer B that you would like to use so that you can print without having to connect directly to the printer.好，所以現在我們可以去電腦B中，你想用這樣您可以打印而不必直接連接到打印機。

Click Start and then Printers & Faxes.點擊開始，然後打印機，傳真機。 In the dialog, clikc Add a Printer from the upper left corner.在對話框中， clikc添加一台打印機從左上角。

When you see the Welcome to the Add Printer wizard, go ahead and click Next.當您看到歡迎你們來添加打印機嚮導，去進取，單擊下一步。 On the next screen where it asks you what type of printer you want to connect to, choose “A network printer or a printer attached to another computer” option and click Next.對下一個畫面，而要求你什麼類型的打印機想要接通，選擇"網絡打印機或打印機連接到另一台計算機"選項，並單擊下一步。

In the next screen, you want to choose “Connect to this printer (or to browse for a printer…)” option and in the text box you will now need to type two forward slashes, “\\” followed by the computer name that we found out earlier, followed by another slash and then the name you chose for the shared printer (in our example HPHome).在未來的畫面中，你要選擇"連接到這台打印機（或更好地瀏覽一台打印機… … ） "選項，並在文本框中，你現在將需要鍵入兩個向前斜線， " \ \ " ，然後由計算機名稱我們發現較早，然後再斜線，然後名字，你選擇了為共享打印機（在我們的例子hphome ） 。

Click Next and Windows will try to connect to the printer.點擊下一步， Windows將嘗試連接至打印機。 It should find it without a problem and then you can click Next and Finish.它應該覺得沒有問題，那麼你就可以點擊下一步完成。 If however, it does not find it, clear out the entire text box and click Next.如果不過，這並不找不到它明確指出，整個文本框並單擊下一步。 Windows will try and find all the computers on the network automatically and it will give you a list of computers of which you can then double click and it will show any shared printers. Windows將設法找出所有網路上的電腦會自動它將給你一個名單，電腦，其中，你便可以雙擊它會顯示所有共享打印機。

Once you double click the name and click Next, the wizard will ask you if you want this to be your default printer or not.一旦你雙擊該名稱，然後點擊下一步，嚮導會問你，如果你想這是你的默認打印機或不是。 Choose Yes or No. After that, you’re done!!!選擇是或不是之後，你就做！ The wizard will automatically download the driver from the other computer, so you don’t have to install the drivers yourself.嚮導會自動下載該名司機從另一台電腦，所以你不需要安裝司機自己。

Remember, since the other computers are connecting to the main computer attached to the printer, the main computer must be on at all times.請記住，因為其他電腦連接到主計算機連接到印表機，電腦主機必須是在任何時候。 Or at least when you want to be able to print from somewhere else.或者至少是當你希望能夠打印從別的地方。 That’s why this method is only good for a home setup, where the main computer stays in one place and is mostly kept on.這也就是為什麼這種方法不僅有利於一個主頁設置，即主要電腦停留在一個地方，並大多是不斷。

Enjoy your new freedom to print from anywhere!!!享受你的新的自由打印隨時隨地！ I’ll also post how to connect a network printer!我還會郵政如何連接網絡打印機！ That’sa lot easier than this procedure and it allows you to print without having to connect through another computer that'sa容易得多超過這個程序，它可以讓你打印，無須連接，通過另一台計算機
