So you have a new computer and you're ready to set it up. This may seem like an overwhelming and complicated task, but it's actually a lot easier than you might think! Most computers are set up in a similar way, so it doesn't matter what brand of computer you have.
Today almost every home and small office has a local network, and an Internet connection. The home network or small office network enables multiple devices e.g. PCs,tablets etc to connect to each other, and also to connect to the internet.
A network printer is a printer that is connected to a computer network and can be accessed from many different computers. This can come in handy if you have more than one computer in your home or business but do not want to have a separate printer for every computer. There are several ways you can go about installing a network printer, depending on the capabilities of the printer and the types of computers connected to the network.
