How do I add a printer to a network. I have never done this before and the people are breathing down my neck wanting their printer!!!
 
You can either buy a print server such as AXIS or a JetDirect (if you are using HP) and follow their set up instructions. or you can attach the printer to a workstation and mark it as being shared, The drawback to this is the printing can be slow and the workstation must be on in order to print. The best solution is a dedicated print server as mention above.
