  1. Go to Devices and Printers > Add a printer

  1. Select "Add a local printer"

 Add a printer 2.jpg

 

  1. Use an existing port (could be Dot 4 or USB port)

 Add a printer 3.jpg

 

  1.  Click on "Windows Update"  (may take a while to update) and then "HP"

 Add a printer 4.jpg

 

  1.  Scroll until you find your printer model.

 Add a printer 5a 1220C.jpg
