If you have a wired printer that you want to connect to your Windows 11/10 PC, you can do so via the native Printer and Scanner settings. Here's how!

If not, then first, install or add a local printer or connect a wireless printer, or some other printer on your Windows 11/10 computer so that you can create and use its shortcut.

Many printer brands also offer their own software that lets you scan from your computer. For instance, if you have an HP printer, you can use the HP Smart app to scan documents.
