Hi,

 

Given they are all connected to a same network. Yes, you can share scan and print from other computer(s).  All you need is to install printer software and drivers to all machines (similar to the first one) but select existing printer.

 

Regards.

Is this also the case with the LaserJet Pro MFP M130fn?  I'm thinking of getting one to share between two WIndows 7 and one Windows 10 computer.  I need each one to be able to initiate a scan and have the scan file saved to it (or to initiate a scan from the printer itself and select the destination PC for the scan file).  All of the devices are on the same network.

 

Thanks,

 

Wilson
