How to Set Up a Wireless New Printer - 123hp Setting up
Setting up any 123hp printer can be relatively simple these days, thanks to a variety of printer models that come with their own installation software or have websites for downloading or com setup printer software. If your printer connects by a wire, plug it into your device. It'll connect automatically, your PC will download the right drivers, and you can use it right away. To connect a wireless printer, follow these steps:
Plug in the printer's power cable and make sure it's turned on.
Connect the included cable (usually a USB cable) from the printer to the computer.
Note: The process will be different if you're using a wireless printer; we'll talk more about that later on.
On your computer, locate the 123hp Printer settings. If you're using a Windows computer setup, you'll find these in the Control Panel. If you're using a Mac, you'll find them in System Preferences.
Look for the option to Add a printer, then follow the instructions that appear.
Now it's time to try printing something! For example, you could try printing this test page. After you click the link, select File > Print from your web browser's menu, or simply press Ctrl+P on your keyboard (or Command+P if you're on a Mac).
A dialog box will appear. Locate and select the new printer from the list, then click Print.
The item will then be printed. But if it doesn't work, don't panic! You can try using some of the solutions to common problems below.
Steps on printing a document, picture, or another file
To print a document, like a letter, or another type of file, follow the steps below.
Open the document or file you want to print. The document could be opened in a word processor, like Microsoft Word, or a text file could be opened in a text editor, like Notepad.
Near the top of the program window, look for a print icon that should resemble any of the below icons. As seen in the picture below, each of the icons resembles a 123hp printer with a setup of printer paper.

Open the document or file you want to print.
In the top portion of the program window or browser you're using, open the file menu by clicking File and then Print from the drop-down menu.
Once either of the options above is done, a Print properties window appears and lets you specify additional printing options (e.g., number of copies). Once you've selected the options, click Ok or Print to start the printing process.
