The easiest way would be to install the printer on one of the computers, and
enable printer sharing on that same PC. Then go to the other PC's and using
the Add-Printer Wizard select Network Printer. This should display that
printer on the other PC and you can then select it.

This of course is very basic instruction and may or may not be more
difficult depending on printer make/model (which you did not reveal).
