| − | ===How do I setup my printer on Ubuntu?===
| |
| − | <ul>
| |
| − | Before you begin the installation steps below, connect your printer/s. You need to do this prior to turning your system on. This helps to ensure Ubuntu recognizes how the printer is connected to the system, and it allows Ubuntu to identify the specific printer port.
| |
| − | <li>'''Starting Ubuntu’s printer tool''' --- From your Ubuntu main menu, select '''System''', then choose ''Administration''. Under the Administration menu, you will find an icon labeled ''Printing''. Select this tool and within several seconds the ''Printer Configuration Tool'' will open.</li>
| |
| − | <li>'''Configuring a printer connection''' --- Now, double click on the ''New Printer'' icon. This will bring up the ''Add a Printer wizard''.</li>
| |
| − | <li>''Choosing a printer driver'' --- Your printer has been detected. Select your printer from the list and click the ''Forward'' button to complete the process.</li>
| |
| − | <li>'''Testing the printer''' --- Highlight your new printer icon and press the right mouse button. Now choose the ''Properties'' option. This takes you to your specific printer’s properties control. The properties control allows you to not only print a test page, but also to make changes to your printer paper, resolution, color options and ink usage. Your printer is now ready to use.</li>
