How can a .PRN file be printed on a USB Printer in Win98?

I have seen solutions like the following in DOS:
COPY /B FILENAME.PRN \\computer_name\printer_share_name
but I don't know how to find the computer_name and printer_share-name in
Win98.

(Ignore the hyperlink. Outlook Express added that.)

Follow Hughs advice, but dont trust it too far,,, he only 'gives' what is
convenient to him to give, and has no intent on following up.
He is a very 'busy' 'fellow'.

Hi, Hugh-

I have no network, so there's no identification tab to find the computer
name, and no sharing tab in the printer.
Now what?
