Changing the printer name.

[BellInnGM]

Hi there. I am the General manager of a small B&B. The previous manager when he installed the printer named it with his name. Everyone in the team hates seeing his name on it still. How can i change the name?

Thanks

Rob

Welcome to the HP support community.

Which operating system is installed on the computer to which this printer is connected?

2. Click on Devices.
3. Click on Printers & scanners.
4. Under the "Printers & scanners" section, select the printer.
5. Click the Manage button. ...
6. Click the Printer properties option.
7. Click the General tab. ...
8. Specify a new name for the printer

Let me know how it goes.
