You can share the printer connected to the printer server (A) with the client PC (B) connected to the same network.
(A) Print sever
(B) Client PC 
The computer directly connected to the printer with a USB cable is called "Print server" (A) and the computer on which printing operation is actually performed is called "Client PC."

Follow the steps below to enable printer sharing.
1. Complete the printer sharing settings on the Printer server.
2. Confirm the computer name of the print server.

Log in as an Administrator to perform the setup.

Canon iP4700 Series is used as an example of the printer to be shared.
Preparations
Both Print server and Client PC must have either of the following drivers installed, namely the one downloaded from Canon website or the one included in the OS. Which driver you should install in depends on the printer / OS.
