Basic advice with little information.


Run ethernet cable from the Printer to a switch or hub. Then connect the 4
computers to the switch or hub. Install TCP/IP or NetBEUI and then share
certain folders on each computer.

Thanks RWH,

share certain folders on each computer?
can't share printer? how to print to the printer?
 
Connect the printer to the network, then:

1. Set or otherwise determine the IP address of the printer - usually you
can print a
configuration/test page and find it there.

2. Start the Add Printer wizard. Do not select Network Printer - select
Local Printer and clear any check boxes for auto detection.

3. Select Create new port - select Standard TCP/IP port and configure it
with the IP address from #1.

No, any printer with a built-in ethernet adapter automatically shares itself
when connected to the network. It's just a matter of correctly configuring
the 'printer' on the individual machines. It makes little difference
whether you have a workgroup or domain environment unless you want to use a
Windows computer to share the printer. However, this is not necessary with
a built-in ethernet capable printer.
