So , hi everyone .
Uh welcome .
And today we will look at how to connect a Canon printer to a laptop and then how to print pages .
So this example we will use can an LP P 2900 B printer , but this will work for any kind of printer because these are generally steps like .
So if you have an HP printer or any other printer like lax or any other brand , so you have to just connect the cables and then do some of the software configuration in Windows 10 .
And then yeah , it will just start working .
So let's look at how , so first of all , uh just connect the power cable .
So at the back side here , we have the power cable here and then we can connect it here to the power .
And then at the back here we have this cable , right ?
So this will go into the slot here at the back foot as you can see , right ?
This one .
Yeah .
So just plug this into this .
Yeah .
And then the other end is a USB cable , right ?
The other end of this cable is a USB , right ?
So just plug this into the laptop or computer USB slot .
Yeah .
So as soon as you connect this , right , uh the first thought that might come is that every , all the connections are done and then um the printer should automatically start printing , right ?
So let's see if it is working like that .
So I've just created this demo print uh note pad .
Uh if I do control p then the printer does not show up here .
Right .
So then what's wrong ?
Right .
So at first I was also not able to figure out , but then what I actually found out was that the drivers for the printer have to be installed on Windows 10 .
Otherwise this will not really work .
So let's first try and search for uh Canon LBP 2900 B drivers , right ?
So as soon as I type that , uh the first link that will come up here is this one , right ?
And just click on that and let's see what comes .
So it says a 64 bit version .
Uh If your computer is 64 bit , just download the 64 bit version here .
Um So it will take maybe a few seconds to download depending on your internet speed .
So here it's done for me .
So once you download it , it will show up as a folder like this .
So just uh extract that and go into the 64 folder inside that 64 folder , you will find a set up link , which is the application for setups , just double click on this select .
Yes and just do next .
Yes , next .
Yes , right .
So this will keep working and it it will install the printer drivers .
So let's just wait for a few moments till the time it completes .
See here .
It it also mentions that the same steps which we talked about , right , that connect the USB cable , then if the printer power is often on the printer .
So in our case , everything is done .
Secondly , it is saying that if the printer is not automatically recognized , even if the USB cable is connected , uh then this the cable and then again , turn off the printer and turn it on .
So , uh we are first installing the drivers and even after that , it is not working , then we will follow this step to remove the cable , plug it in back and then also power off the printer and then power it on back .
Ok .
So now our drivers have been installed .
Uh , so let's go to again , add printer screen and see if the printer is coming up there .
So I'll just , right now it's not showing up to me here .
I'll , what I'm doing is I'm just removing the USB cable and I'll just put it back so that it automatically identifies my printer .
Let's see if it comes up .
Now .
If not , then I'll , uh , see it has come up here now and looks like that it has been installed now .
So after the uh drivers are installed , if your printer is not showing up automatically , then just plug in the USB cable once more automatically , it should come up .
Even if it is not coming up after that , just power off your printer and power it on back , then it should just come back .
So let's try printing a text uh demo page now .
So for printing , you just need to put the papers here .
So this is the place where you should put the printer pages , right ?
And then as soon as this is done , uh let's try printing our demo page again .
So this is the demo print , right ?
And then let's put some Star , Star star something like that just to see how it is working and then you control P see A can an LVP showing up here and just print and see the printer has started working .
And let's see if the printing comes out as we expected or not .
And I think we have our test print , see whatever we did a demo print , it has come out here nicely .
So thank you so much for watching .
