A printer is connected locally on Computer1 and is shared on the network. Computer2 installs the shared printer and connects to it. Computer1 considers the printer to be a(n) _____local___________ printer, and Computer2 considers the printer to be a(n) _____network___________ printer.
Explanation:
Any printer installed directly to Computer 1 is a local printer. If this printer is then shared with computers 2 and 3 in a particular networked environment, it becomes a shared printer. For these other computers 2 and 3, the shared printer is a network printer, because it is not locally installed in each of them. There may be some features which network computers cannot use on a shared printer, especially if the printer can scan documents.
