You can use write command.

As @MelBurslan commented, if write permission is off, first execute:

 $ mesg y

From man mesg

OPTIONS

y Allow write access to your terminal.

Usage of write:

$ write username tty

e.g. Send ls output to other terminal.

$ w
USER     TTY      FROM             LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
user     :0       :0               08:15   ?xdm?   7:37   0.25s init --user
user     pts/0    :0               08:19    1.00s  0.09s  0.01s w
user     pts/12   :0               08:50   54.00s  0.03s  0.03s bash
