How to Add a Printer to a Mac (10 Steps)

Start up your Macintosh and insert the CD that came with your printer if it has one. This will contain the drivers for your printer, which tell the Macintosh how to communicate with it. You can also download drivers from the manufacturer's website.
Connect the printer to your Macintosh, following the manufacturer's directions; check for a 'Quick Start' guide in the box with illustrations to guide you.
Turn the printer on by pressing the power switch after it is connected.
Locate the printer drivers CD icon on your Macintosh desktop and double-click to open it and view the contents. An installer icon should be clearly visible.
Double-click the installer application (or the downloaded file if you got the drivers file from the manufacturer's website instead of a CD) and follow the screen prompts to complete the installation.
