Hi,
I have an HP Laserjet 4050N printer with network card and I would like to be able to use this as a common printer for 3 or 4 PC's that are connected to my BT Home Hub v2.
In addition, I have a Netgear 8 port fast ethernet switch (model FS108) that is not used or connected to any of the equipment just in case this is useful.
How do I enable all PC's to be able to print to the printer? The LAN port on each of the PC's is connected to the BT Home Hub v2 so do I need to edit some settings on the BT Home Hub v2 or do I place the Netgear switch into the connectivity with an output to the printer LAN port?
I do not wish to have file sharing between the PC's, just printer sharing if that is possible. One of the PC's is running Windows 7 with the others all running Windows XP.
Any help most appreciated.
