Q: File and Printer Sharing AFP
I have some questions regarding file and print sharing. Firstly, do I need to install the drivers for my Canon printer before I can print a document from the computer that is sharing the printer? I have done this, but after watching reading some tutorials on how to do this, I noticed that installing the actual printer driver was not noticed. If I don't need it, where can I find the driver in order to delete it?
Also, I'm unsure on how to share a particular folder from mac to mac. Originally I just wanted to share my documents folder, so I added it to the list and turned on file sharing. On my other mac I pressed shift, cmd and 'k', located my other mac, signed in as a 'registered user', and now I seem to have access to everything, which is kinda fine, but it would be nice to know how to setup individual folders between macs with a password if possible. I noticed you could add users via the address book, but as I'm the same person on both computers (iCloud), I couldn't figure out what to do for the best.
Thanks
