Can a computer have more than one printer installed in it and explain?

Yes because it is upgradable. yOU NEED TO SHARE THE PRINTER. Most computers today have several Universal Serial Bus inputs, and each one is capable of supporting a different printer. However, the printer drivers must be installed on the computer, so that the computer can communicate with the printer. These drivers are contained in the installation disc which comes with the printer, or can be downloaded from the manufacturers website. Older computers had a parallel port to drive printers, and could only operate one printer. A 'shared' printer is one which is accessible from the local are network, which allows a user on a computer which is not directly connected to the printer to use that printer.
