Install a printer in Windows – Microsoft Support

    If your printer is on and connected to the network, Windows should find it easily. Available printers can include all printers on a network, such as Bluetooth and wireless printers or printers that are plugged into another computer and shared on the network. You might need permission to install some printers.

  1. On the taskbar, select the Search icon, type Printers in the search bar, and then select Printers & scanners from the search results to open the Printers & scanners system setting.

    Open Printers & scanners settings

  2. Next to Add a printer or scanner, select Add device.

  3. Wait for it to find nearby printers, then choose the one you want to use, and select Add device. If you want to remove the printer later, select it, and then select Remove.

  4. If your printer isn’t in the list, next to The printer that I want isn’t listed, select Add manually, and then follow the instructions to add it manually using one of the options.

  5. If you’re not able to connect the printer manually, try to fix the problem by using the steps in Fix printer connection and printing problems in Windows.
