File & Printer Sharing
Networking, or connecting computers together to share information, has long been one of the more difficult areas of basic computing to get a grasp on.
If you have more than one computer, you may want to consider linking them together in a network. A network allows multiple computers to interact with one another in order to share files, resources and an Internet connection.
Sharing Files: In the past, swapping files between computers was done with floppies, then CDs, and now memory sticks. It is now easier than ever, as you can access any other computer on the network from the convenience of your own keyboard. Directories and files appear as if they were on your own system. MP3 libraries, digital photographs, spreadsheets and word processing files are only a click away, no matter where they reside on the network. Whether an individual with a laptop and desktop system, or a large office with multiple computers on the network, users will find file sharing to be one of the biggest conveniences.
Sharing resources: A network allows all computers direct access to a single printer. This not only saves the expense of multiple printers, but also allows for the purchase of a single high-end printer that everyone can use. If more than one person on the network is sending data to the printer, jobs will enter a queue.
