How to make a print server from an old laptop?

Question

WiFi

There is an old laptop with a half-broken screen, there is an MFP without Wi-Fi. I would like to make it possible to send files for printing via WiFi from any computer in the apartment .
Google said that you can squeeze such features out of an old laptop, but did not say HOW exactly =))
Do not judge strictly, I'm not good at this, but I really want to figure it out =)

Answer 1

If on the local network there is a PC with an OS higher than Windows 7, then we simply combine the computers into a home group. Lots of instructions online. Google
To use the scanner on a local network, you can buy this program www.blindscanner.com/ru/products/blindscanner-pro.html

Answer 2

Yes, you just rummage around the printer over the network and connect it as a network printer to the rest of the OS.
It will also be useful to share it in google cloud print so that you can print from mobile phones.
Google "how to share a printer in windows XXX" and "how to connect a network printer to windows XXX/whatever".
