How to set up Win10 system to connect to network printer?

How does the Win10 system set up to connect to a network printer? Every company has a printer. LAN printers have always been the first choice of company personnel. A printer is available to the entire center and is very practical. Here is a regular connection printer, and a more convenient way to connect. The second is recommended, the second is simpler and more convenient, and the connection success rate is higher than the first one.

Method 1:

1. After entering the system, click on the “Start” menu and select “Settings”. Or enter the shortcut key <;Win+I” enter the settings interface, and click & ldquo; device & rdquo;.

2. In the new pop-up window, find “Add Printer or Scanner”. After clicking, “Printing printer or scanner” will be displayed. Wait a moment, you can see “The printer I need is not in the list”.

3. Click on this time “ The printer I need is not in the list> It, in the new window that pops up, you can see 5 single buttons. We choose the second item "Select a shared printer by name" and click "Browse”. The third item is not selected because the third item has a low success rate.

4. A new window appears after clicking. This is special. Do not click on the remote computer you are looking for in the window (because it may fail to connect). We directly enter the IP address of the remote computer “\\\\192.168.0.123” and click “select”. Remember to keep the wrong direction of the slash. This technique is very special and many friends don't know it.

5. At this time, a remote shared printer appears. Select the desired printer and click “Select”

6. After selection, if it is normal, The printer is added automatically. But you will also encounter this situation, the prompt <; can not find the driver & rdquo;, this time you need to install the printer driver.

7. Take out the CD that was given when you bought the printer, or search for the printer model to download. Follow the prompts to install. There are some places to explain here. It is recommended to use "Determine that you want to install the software without connecting the printer", and do not choose other options.

8. After the installation is complete, perform the above steps. We have seen that this time we have successfully added the printer. At the time of completion, there will be a button to print the test page, we don't want to click it, just click “Complete”

9, adhering to the principle of not wasting paper, we open a blank notebook at random, and click on the “File” in the menu bar, select “Print” & rdquo; In the pop-up dialog box, select the printer we just added. In the default list of printers, the words "Document, PDF" are virtual printers, not real printers, we remember.

10. At this time, seeing the printer exiting normally indicates that the printer is properly connected and can be used.

Method 2:

1, Method 2 The probability of successfully connecting to a remote printer is very high. However, due to the overlap of its methods and methods, it is noted that this method merely replaces the first four steps in Method 1. We open the run (“Win+R”) and then directly enter the IP of the shared printer computer. The input format is “\\\\192.168.0.123”. Remember that the double slashes are not mistaken.

2. After the carriage return, the “Run” box will disappear, and then wait a moment, a message box will pop up. If the network connection is normal, the printer will be found. Double-click to run directly to complete the installation of the printer, which is very convenient.

3, but there is another situation, suggesting that "Windows can not access XXXX", this time, it is necessary to deal with the problem of LAN sharing, not the scope of this experience, no longer introduced. In particular, if you can't connect in this way, then Method 1 can basically fail. There are techniques and methods, but I also wish you good luck.
