Install and configure the printer supplied but not attached (plug and play).

New printer certainly comes with packaging wires, software etc. To install it you need to switch off the computer than physically attach the cable to the printer. Such as plug in the parallel wire in the “parallel port”, after that connect power supplier to switch board and attach (plug) with printer. Than turn on the printer! While doing this system verify the external devices and indicate you “installing devices” on the right button of the screen. The advantage of the Microsoft operating system is automatic install a driver for the printers and saves time from hassles of installing the printer software. If system could not recognise the new devices, than install the software that related to printer.
When you installing software checks for the cable line. Follow the instruction and install the assessable software with drivers, than go to the add printer on the control panel. Double click printer wizard network than dialog will appear on the screen. You can choose either local printer or Bluetooth printer. Select one of the options than click next button. Write down your local printer name than press next. After that printer model name and driver will appear on the new dialog box. Select printer “HP” than wizard will ask which port the printer is connected to. Select the driver that related to HP.
Give specific printer name. Printer window will display the name you have given. Finally the wizard will ask if user want to test for a print, to check that the new printer driver is working property or not? Than press finish button.
