Is there a way to share a normal printer?

Question

i have a hp F2120 All in one printer. I also have a netgear router, (no usb port) and a secondary printer Hp (photosmart 7450). I would like to connect to the secondary printer from my laptop (macbook) wirelessly. is that possible>? the computer connected to the secondary printer is a dell, running windows. Possible?

Answer 1

You need to be running Bonjour on the Dell to share the printer to Macs-

Your mac will pick up the signal that the Dell will be emitting if Bonjour is running... when the two are hooked up to the same network.

Answer 2

Yes it is.

First setup file and print sharing

Then use the network neighborhood to browse to the printer.

When you double click on it, a popup will ask for the driver disk. Insert the driver disk and click ok.
