Adding a Printer
Step 1: Type control panel in the search bar
Step 2: Open up control panel
Step 3: Click on view devices and printers
Step 4: Click add a printer
Step 5: Click The printer that I want isn’t listed
Step 6: Select Add a printer using TCP/IP address or hostname then click next
Step 7: Type in the IP address of the printer you are trying to set up (check printer IP address book)
Step 8: Ask your coworker what they want the printer to be named
Step 9: Print a test page and confirm that the page has printed
Step 10: We still have to make sure all the setting are correct! Right click on the printer you just added and look at the properties
Step 11: Check to see the if the port is set up to the IP address you just put in (192.168.10.253). If it is not there we will put it in. Click add port
And then click Standard TCP/IP Port and click new port
Step 12: Click next and just like before enter the IP address
Step 13: Confirm the box is now checked with right IP address
Step 14: Ensure that the correct driver has been selected for the printer. Under the advanced tab it will say driver
This would be the wrong driver so we must click the drop down and see if the correct one is there
In this case this the driver needed!
*The correct driver depends on what kind of printer it is
Step 15: Test the printer by printing a page
