How to Add a Printer in Windows 10

Modified on Tue, Sep 28, 2021 at 11:13 AM

If you are trying to connect to a new printer on Windows 10 and plan to print over Wi-Fi, you may be able to print right away without downloading the printer software.  Windows 10 is compatible with most new printers right out of the gate.


To add a new printer, go to Settings > Devices > Printers & ScannersAdd Printer and select the printer you want to add.  If you plan to use this printer regularly you can set it as your default printer and also print a test page to test for print quality before printing out your document.
