How do i install a new printer with no dvd?

how do i install a new printer with no dvd?

Hook it up and see if it works. If it is one of the more common printer brands/models, it could very well have it's drivers installed, depending on how your OS was installed. If not, you can always go to the support site for your printer and download the drivers, if necessary.
What kind of printer do you have? What OS and how was it installed?

  • How do I install a new printer profile on CS4?

    Folder system has changed from CS3, and instructions I find on Web don't sync with CS4.  I'm working with an Epson R1800 and trying to get illford papers' profiles installed.  Suggestions including possible web link for me to follow would be much appreciated.

  • How do I install my new printer software on my macbook air when there is not a disk drive?

    I recently got a new hp all in one printer but the software for it comes on a disk but the macbook air does not have a disk drive..

    If "plan A" is unsuccessful, you can download the driver from the printer manufacturers website. You can also share another computer's dvd drive.
    And you may want to consider buying a MacBook Air external Superdrive from Apple for $79.00. Maybe its not necessary now, you may find some software that will make it handy. Or use the drive to rip DVD's and CD's.

  • I am trying to install a new printer and I am not sure which application to use?

    I am trying to install a new printer with the external CD rom drive on my MacBook Air.  When I load the disc it is not allowing the program to run as it is stating that I have the wrong application to do so.  How do I install things from the external CD Rom?

    What model printer is it?
    It is unlikely you need its installation CD-ROM at all.

    Have a G400, OS10.4.11. Need 10.5 or later to install a new printer.
    1) Which one will run best?
    2) How do I upgrade?

    It's probably cheaper to buy a new printer & sell the existing on on ebay.

    how do I install dell v305 print drivers on my new macbook pro?

    Dell's drivers are only for Windows. If you can find out who makes the printer and what model it is, then you may be able to find OS X drivers for it. Or you can see how well it works using the Generic driver.

  • I erased my HD and could not install lion. if I turn on the mac now all I see is a folder with a question-mark. How can I install a new operation system?

    I erased my HD and could not install lion. if I turn on the mac now all I see is a folder with a question-mark. How can I install a new operation system?

    Install or Reinstall Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Adding new printer with ARD 2.2

    I just installed a new printer in a lab of 27 eMacs (an hp 1200). I set up the printer on one of the eMacs and now would like to use ARD 2.2 to install the printer on the other computers. Where is the information about installed printers stored in 10.4? I copied the /users/username/library/printer folder from the eMac with the new printer setup to one of the other eMacs but it didn't copy the new printer into that folder. Is there a better way to do this? I thought that there would be a folder or file that stores this info. that I could easily copy to the other eMacs. Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Hi there,
    Printer information is stored in /etc/cups. Here you will have several files containing printer information, such as cupsd.conf and printers.conf. There is also the ppd folder that contains the ppds for the printer/s that have been added.
    I haven't tried this but I think if you copy the two files and folder mentioned above and the file/s from the ~/library/Printers folder, then this may be sufficient.
    Of course the printer would have to be a network printer. If it is physically connected to the eMac then this won't be suitable. Sorry if this is obvious but you didn't mention how the printer was configured so I couldn't assume you were aware of this.
    Regards,
    Paul

  • How do I install a wireless printer

    How do I install a wireless printer on my I pad 2?

    Your printer needs to have a technology called AirPrint built in on it.
    If it has wifi built in, it has a chance of working, as no non-wifi printers have AirPrint built in.
    If it does, your printer can work with the iPad.
    If it doesn't, you can purchase software for your Mac or PC that uses your computer as a little passthrough to connect and print from your printer.
