Install the local printer (if not already done), right click on the icon and select "sharing"  you might need to be logged on as an
administrator, but apart from that, there is little else to it.

Do you mean access it from another computer?
Go to the other computer and add a new printer. Choose Network Printer then either browse for it the way you found it in network places or choose the
middle option and type the printer's address directly:
\\computer-name\printer-share-name
So if the computer is called sally and the share name for the printer is hpinkjet you would type \\sally\hp-inkjet here.
Hope that helps.
