The Computername you can get by right clicking on the My computer, Properties, Computer Name tab. Alternatively, run ipconfig /all from the Command prompt. The host name will be the the Computer Name.
The PrinterShareName: Right-click on the printer in the printer list, chose Sharing..., click on Share this printer and fill share name. That's the one you'll use in the NET USE command.
The above is possible only if File and Printer sharing is enabled. To enable it, rigt click on a network connection and select properties. Find File and Printer sharing for Microsoft Networks and check it.
