How can I share my scanner with other macs on my network?

Mac OS Monterey


I want to share my Epson scanner with other macs on my network. However, when I go to system preferences/sharing/ there is no checkbox to share the scanner.


This is possible using 3rd party software like USB Network Gate but you have to pay.


This is a feature that is built into Windows machines. How can I do this on my mac without having to install and pay for extra software?

I would connect the printer/scanner to the network then each computer would have access without the need for sharing.
