Answer 1

Hi. Thank you for your question and reaching out. I’d be more than happy to help you with your query

To create a print server in a local network, you will need a computer that is connected to the network and has the necessary hardware and software installed. The first step is to install the printer drivers on the computer. Once the printer drivers are installed, you will need to configure the computer as a print server. This can be done by accessing the printer sharing settings in the computer's control panel. Once the print server is configured, other computers in the local network will be able to access the print server and print documents.
