2) Click Printers and Scanners.

3) Click the plus button (+).

4) At the top, click the network icon. Configure the following information and click the Add button:

• Address: Type the IP address of your printer. If you do not know your printer's IP address, consult the manufacturer's website or the manual received with the printer to determine how to locate it.
• Protocol: Line Printer Daemon - LPD
• Name: Type a descriptive name for your printer.
• Use: Make sure that the correct printer drivers have been selected for your printer. If the driver listed in the "Use" field is Generic Postscript Printer, you most likely do not have the correct drivers installed. Visit your printer manufacturer's website to obtain the latest drivers for your printer.

5) Please wait while the printer is set up.

6) If prompted about your printer's options, set them appropriately. For instance, if your printer supports duplexing, check the box for that option. Click OK when done.
