You will need to know the model of printer and the operating system you are using on the computer or laptop in order to download the correct drivers from the HP website.......then it's just a case of plugging it in......is it a USB connection for the printer?

OK, what model printer is is? What operating system are you running?

I'll see if I can e-mail you a link for the right drivers
