Hello! I have made small network. But, I have question regarding this subject. My friend told me that none printer except network printer will work on my home network. I know that network printers are expensive and I have common Canon Pixma printer. So, do you know where I can change this printer with additional payment for network one?

Hello! Your friend is not right. You need not network printer. I assume that your Canon Pixma is attached to one computer. Only you need to do is to share it with other one. On that attached computer go to control panel printer and faxes and right click to your printer icon and check Shared option; on the other computer, also, go to control panel printer and faxes and click add new printer, follow wizard and that is it. You will be able to use it from both computers.
