How to Add a Printer on Windows

Step 1: Connect the Printer to Wi-Fi

Use the printer’s built-in display or control panel to connect to your wireless network. This typically involves selecting your Wi-Fi network and entering the password.

Step 2: Open Windows "Printers & Scanners"

• Click the Start button.
• Go to Settings.
• Select Devices.
• Click on Printers & Scanners.

Step 3: Add a Printer

Click Add a printer or scanner. Windows will search for available printers connected to the network. Select your printer from the list and click Add device.

Step 4: Install Drivers (If Needed)
