Hi,

How to download and install the latest printer drivers

Use Windows Update

Windows Update might find an updated version of your printer driver. To use it:

1. Select Start , then select Settings  > Update & Security  > Windows Update.
   Open Windows Update.

2. Select Check for updates.

If Windows Update finds an updated driver, it will download and install it, and your printer will automatically use it. If a device driver couldn’t be installed automatically, there may be an optional driver available that your printer can use. To check for optional drivers:

1. Once the update check is done running, select View optional updates if this is visible.

2. On the next screen, expand Driver updates.

3. If you see the applicable drivers for your printer, select the updates you want to download and install.

4. Select Download and install.

To install or add a wired or local printer

In most cases, all you have to do to set up a printer is to connect it to your PC. Simply plug the USB cable from your printer into an available USB port on your PC, and turn the printer on.

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.
