How to add a shared printer in win10 system

Here's how to do it: 1. After entering the system, click on the "Start" menu and select "Settings". Or enter the shortcut key "win+i" to enter the setting interface and click "Device".

2. In the pop-up window, find "Add Printer or Scanner". After clicking on it, "Searching for printers or scanners" will appear, and after a while, you can see that "the printer I need is not in the list".

3. At this time, click "The printer I need is not in the list", and in the new window that pops up, you can see 5 single buttons. Select the second item, "Select Shared Printers by Name", and click "Browse". The third option is not chosen because the success rate of the third option is not high.

4. A new window appears after clicking, which is more special here, do not click directly on the remote computer you want to find in the window (because there is a possibility that the connection fails). Directly enter the IP address of the remote computer and click "Select". Remember the direction of the slash and don't get it wrong.

5. At this time, the remote shared printer appears, select the required printer, and click "Select".

6. After selection, if it is normal, the printer will be added automatically. However, this situation will also be encountered, prompting "driver not found", at this time you need to install the printer driver.

7. Take out the CD that you gave when you bought the printer, or search for the printer model**. Follow the prompts to install. There are a few things that need to be clarified here. Here we recommend using "Make sure you want to install the software without connecting to the printer" and do not select another option.

8. After the installation is completed, execute the above steps once. This time, I successfully added the printer. When you finish, there will be a button to print the test page, don't click on it, just click "Done".

Click on the control panel on the desktop of the win10 system, and select the view type in the control panel.

Change the viewing type to a small icon, and then tap "Devices & Printers".

In the Devices & Printers window, select the printer you want to share, and then right-click and select Printer Properties.

Click to enter the corresponding printer properties dialog box, and click the Share tab.

In the Share tab, check "Share this printer" and click OK.

Once the printer sharing setup is complete, other computers can access the shared printer over the network.

1. First of all, you need to know that all the credentials of the win10 system are set in the credential manager, open the control panel, and click on the user account.

2. On the user account interface, click Manage Windows Credentials.

3. After entering, click Add Windows Credentials on the right, that is, Add Network Credentials.

4. Access the shared printer, file, computer in the LAN, add the network credentials required here, enter the IP address of the computer where the shared printer or file or computer is located, and then enter the computer account name and password where the computer is located, and click OK.

5. After saving the network credentials, access the shared printer again, and the file will not need the credentials, here you can modify and delete the credentials.
