Connecting a printer
Your printer documentation may require you to install the printer
software before physically connecting the printer to your computer. If
you do not install the software as instructed by the printer
manufacturer, the printer may not function correctly.
Read the documentation that came with your printer. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions when connecting a printer.
You can connect a USB-compatible printer to your computer
through one of the USB ports. To determine if the printer is
USB-compatible, check its documentation.
To make the connection, you need a suitable USB cable,
which may come with your printer. If a USB cable was not
included with your printer, you can purchase one from a
computer or electronics store.
If your printer supports Plug and Play, your computer will
automatically recognize the printer; the printer is then ready
for use. Refer to your printer documentation for further
instructions.
TECHNICAL NOTE: To determine if your printer supports Plug and
Play, check its documentation.
If your printer does not support Plug and Play, you must set
up the printer as described in “Setting up a printer” in the
electronic user’s guide.
To connect a USB printer to your computer:
1 Connect the printer cable to the printer and then connect
the other end to one of the computer’s USB ports.
2 Plug the printer’s power cable into a live electrical outlet.
See your printer documentation for additional configuration
steps, or see “Setting up a printer” in the electronic user’s
guide.
