How to share a HP PSCxxxx printer on a multi OS Windows network:

- first connect and instal the printer on the "final PC" (sharing
enabled)
- next, connect the printer to each PC and install the corresponding
software
- after installation and succesfull test:
modify the printer set-up for the locally installated PSCxxx printer
to network installation
right mouse clik on the printer and select "properties" from the menu
select the "Details" tab
modify the selected port to the full network name were the printer is
installed "\\computer\printer_name"
modify the 'printer port'
restart the pc on completion you can disconnect the printer and move
to the next PC (and so on)
- finally connect the printer to the "final PC" your set-up.

disadvantage is that the connected pc search for the "network
connection" at startup !
