Connecting the printer to a personal computer is easy. The whole process consists of physically connecting to a computer and an electrical outlet, as well as installing and configuring the appropriate software.
Instructions
Step 1
If you install a new printer, then you must first remove all shipping tapes from its surface, they are yellow or orange. Connect the printer to the mains, turn it on, install the cartridge that comes with the kit, and then turn it off. Use a USB cable (may need to be purchased separately) to connect the printer to your computer.
Step 2
After turning on the printer, a message will appear in the tray (lower right corner of the monitor screen) stating that Windows has found new hardware. The Found New Hardware Wizard window opens. Insert the driver disc, select the "Automatic installation" radio button and click the "Next" button. The software will be found and installed automatically.
Step 3
If the Found New Hardware Wizard does not start automatically, you can install the drivers in another way. Open the "Printers and Faxes" window, select "Add Printer" on the left side of the window, the "Add Printer Wizard" will start. Check the "Local printer connected to this computer" radio button, also check the "Automatically detect and install PnP printer" checkbox, click the "Next" button. The printer is detected and the software is installed.
You can also install drivers directly from the disk, for this select the appropriate item in the autorun menu.
Step 4
Open the main menu "Start" and select "Control Panel". Go to the Printers and Faxes section. In the context menu of the installed printer, select "Properties", click the "Test Print" button and check the operation of the device.
The installation of the MFP (Multifunctional Device) is carried out in the same way, while the drivers for the scanner are additionally installed.
