Printer Software & Win 10


The driver for printers that work in Windows 8/8.1 should work in Windows 10. Actually you don't even need to run the setup from the vendor software disk which most of the times they add extra junks to the package. Here's how to add a printer:

• Control Panel->Devices and Printers->Add a printer
• Windows will automatically search for your printer & Model
• If it does not find it, click on "The printer that I want isn't listed"
• On next screen, select the appropriate choice ie. Local Printer/Network Printer etc...
• Click Next->Next. You'll get a list of printers to choose from.
• If still not on the list. Click Windows Update and wait for an update list. Your printer should be listed
• Hi lite it and click next to install the driver.

NOTE: Install the driver this way will ensure that it works with Windows 10 and it is up-to-date.
