Zusammenfassung:	Word processing systems wherein material to be printed is formatted on a plurality of display units having each a display (22), and a text formatting processor (14) which formats the display material, the display units sharing a single printer (10). This is accomplished by having at least one of the display units called the primary display unit (11) which comprises means for controlling the sharing of the printer (10) by the other display units, and each of the other display units which communicates with the printer under the control of these printer sharing control means and through a printer sharing adapter (28). At least part of this printer sharing control means is contained in the text formatting processor (14) of the primary display unit (11).
