Option 1: Using Built-in Print Functionality

  1. Ensure the Printer is Connected to Wi-Fi: Follow the printer's manual to connect it to your wireless network.

  1. Print Your Document: Open your project file, click on File > Print, select your wireless printer, adjust settings if needed, and click Print.

Option 2: Using Printer Manufacturer's Software

Many printer manufacturers offer their own software that can simplify printing tasks. Examples include:

  • HP Smart for HP printers

  • Epson iPrint for Epson printers

Option 2: Google Cloud Print (Android Devices)

(Note: Google Cloud Print was deprecated in December 2020, so you might need to use manufacturer-specific apps or other methods.)

  2. Send an Email: Compose an email with the document attached and send it to the printer’s email address.

  3. Print: The printer will receive the email and print the attached document.

6. Using USB Drive (if Wireless is Unavailable)

Option 1: Direct USB Printing

  1. Copy Document to USB Drive: Save your project file to a USB drive.

  2. Insert USB Drive into Printer: Plug the USB drive into the printer’s USB port.

  3. Print from USB: Use the printer’s menu to select and print the document from the USB drive.
