Easy - use PSERVER.EXE on the machine you want to use - it doesn't have
to be a 486 either, anything from a 286 upwards will work, although the
heavier the usage the faster the machine ought to be! For my little 10
user system a 286 works fine driving 2 printers.

As to how to do it, read the Novell manual, it's very comprensive! If
you've lost the printed copy (well don't we all?!) then the online docs
will tell you all you need to know.
