How to Share Printer in Windows 10 [Tutorial]

In Windows 10, you can take a printer, plug it into one computer, and then print to it from another computer. It’s all made possible because of network printer sharing. We covered this before in our tutorial on sharing printers in Windows 7, but some of the steps and screens have changed slightly in Windows 10. Read on for more details.

Network printers are able to connect directly to your network using Wi-Fi or Ethernet, and are available to add for anyone on the same network by default.

If you have a printer connected to and setup on your computer instead, then you will need to share the printer before it will be available to add for anyone on the same network.

Network printer sharing allows another computer on your network to print to the printer connected to your computer on the same network.

The HomeGroup service will no longer be available starting with Windows 10 build 17063. The user profile used for sharing and the file/folder/printer shares will continue to work.

Microsoft's Windows 10 April 2018 Update made several significant changes to the operating system, including new data privacy protections, better security protocols, the addition of artificial intelligence APIs, and virtualization improvements. But the update also included many smaller changes that you may not notice right away.

For example, it removed the HomeGroup application, something you or your small home-based office may not notice until you try to print a document. That's because one of HomeGroup's primary functions was to facilitate the sharing of printers on a small network without resorting to Wi-Fi or router configurations. Small networks can still share a printer after the April 2018 Update, but it requires some convoluted setup.

This how-to tutorial will show you how to share a printer connected to a PC with the rest of a small local network now that HomeGroup is gone. Note: The PC to which the printer is connected must be on and logged in before any sharing can take place. This technique for sharing a printer can be effective for small home-based networks with printers that are not Wi-Fi enabled.

This tutorial will show you how to unshare or share a printer over the network without using HomeGroup in Windows 10.

You must be signed in as an administrator to share a printer connected to your PC.
