How to Connect an Inkjet Printer to a Wireless Network

Video Transcript

"Hi my name is Dave Casuto and I am the director of San Francisco Computer Tutors here in San Francisco, California. So in this tutorial we're going to show you how to configure your wireless printer to connect through your laptop. So the first thing you want to make sure is that your lap, excuse me, your printer is a wireless printer that it can actually connect to that and it has the sensors to pickup on the wireless signal. First thing you want to do is go to setup right here. So using your little joystick here, the arrows, you're going to want to go to network, because we're on a wireless network and then simply click OK. And then from here we're going to go to the fourth one down and choose wireless setup wizard. And now it says here searching for wireless router. Now I have one that does not have a security password associated with it. If your's does, then you're going to actually have to put in the password at this point and this is mine, deyec. And so I'm going to simply click OK and then it tells me here OK to confirm, confirm settings. And it's attempting network connections and now my printer is now making an attempt to actually speak to my printer and it should be done momentarily and then once that's done, you are ready to print. And of course this goes without saying it tells me here connected to network, OK to continue and it goes without saying that your computer should have the proper driver installed in it as well for your computer to communicate with your printer. OK and then we're all set and then I will get out of here and go back to my home and you are ready to print wirelessly. Alright, well I hope you had as much fun as I did.
