networking computers to 1 printerI have 6 computers that do not access the internet. We are trying to network
the 6 computers to the 1 printer. It is a classroom. Trying to find the easiest way to network them into the printer. The computers will not access the internet. Then assign these computers without default gateway.

Make sure the computers have unique names and are assigned to the same Workgroup (e.g., Classroom). Enable File and Printer Sharing. Connect the printer to one of the computers (preferably one that is reasonably fast and has a reasonable amount of RAM) and install it. Once the printer is working on the one computer, go to the Add Printers dialogue on each of the other computers and use the "Network Printer or Printer attached to another computer" dialogue. It should be able to find the printer on the other computer, and install it.
