How do I print something?
Once you add a printer, you’re ready to print. To print from a Windows Store app:
1. Open what you want to print.
For example, open a picture in Photos, a web page in Internet Explorer, or an email message in Mail.
2. Open the Devices charm, and then tap or click your printer from the list.
If your printer isn’t listed, it may be because the app doesn’t support printing or you haven’t added a
printer.
3. Choose your printing options and tap or click Print.
Tips
To print from a desktop app such as Notepad, find the Print command in the app or press Ctrl+P.
To capture the screen (print screen), press and hold the Windows logo on the touchscreen and then press
the Volume down rocker switch on the left edge of Surface. The screen dims briefly and the screen
capture is saved in the Pictures\Screenshots folder. You can also use the Snipping Tool to capture areas of
the desktop screen.
To see advanced printer setup options, go to the Start screen, type Advanced printer setup, tap or click
Settings, and then tap or click Advanced printer setup from the search results.
