| Hello and welcome to the spoken tutorial on Printer Connection.

|-
| 00:00:06
| In this tutorial, we will learn to connect a printer to a computer.

|-
| 00:00:11
| For this tutorial, I'm using

|-
| 00:00:13 
| Ubuntu Linux 12.10 OS 

|-
| 00:00:17
| and Cannon printer

|-
| 00:00:20
| Let me quickly introduce you to the various components of a computer.

|-
| 00:00:25
| This is the CPU

|-
| 00:00:27
| Monitor

|-
| 00:00:29
| Keyboard

|-
| 00:00:30
| Mouse 

|-
| 00:00:32
| and Printer

|-
| 00:00:34
| Let's look at the CPU.

|-
| 00:00:41
| In most of the CPUs, there are some USB ports in the front 

|-
| 00:00:46
|and some at the back.

|-
| 00:00:49
| Now, let's have a look at our printer.

|-
| 00:00:53
| Usually there is a power switch on the front or top part of the printer.

|-
| 00:01:00
| And there is a power slot and a USB port at the back of the printer.

|-
| 00:01:11
| To connect a printer to a computer, we have to use a USB cable.

|-
| 00:01:16
| Let's connect the USB cable to the printer. 

|-
| 00:01:22
| Now let's connect the other end of the cable, to the CPU's USB port.

|-
| 00:01:30
| Now, our printer is connected to the computer.

|-
| 00:01:33
| Switch on the power button on the printer.

|-
| 00:01:37
| Now, let's configure the printer using our computer.

|-
| 00:01:43
| Let's go to the '''Desktop'''.

|-
| 00:01:46 
| Click on the '''Dash Home''' icon, at the top left hand side of the '''launcher''' '''bar'''.

|-
| 00:01:53
| In the '''Search bar''', type '''Printing'''

|-
| 00:01:58
| The printer icon will be displayed.

|-
| 00:02:02
| Click on it.

|-
| 00:02:04
| In older versions of Ubuntu, click on

|-
| 00:02:07
| '''System '''

|-
| 00:02:08
| '''Administration '''

|-
| 00:02:09
| and '''Printing'''.

|-
| 00:02:12
| Now, the '''Printing''' dialog box appears.

|-
| 00:02:16
| It says - '''There are no printers configured yet.'''

|-
| 00:02:21
| At the top left corner, there is a button named '''Add,''' with a green '''Plus''' sign on it. Click on it.

|-
| 00:02:30
| It will open the '''New Printer '''dialog box.

|-
| 00:02:34
| On the left hand side, a list of printer devices connected to the computer, is displayed.

|-
| 00:02:42
| Here, let's select our printer, i.e., '''Cannon Printer''' and click on '''Forward'''.

|-
| 00:02:51
| Then it will automatically begin searching for drivers. I will click on '''Cancel'''.

|-
| 00:02:59
| Now, the dialog box switches to the '''Choose Driver''' option.

|-
| 00:03:04
| The '''Default''' option will work in most cases.

|-
| 00:03:08
| Since, I have a '''Canon Printer''', here in this list, it is selected by default.

|-
| 00:03:16
| Now click on '''Forward'''.

|-
| 00:03:19
| In the '''Model''' page, my printer model is automatically detected.

|-
| 00:03:26
| It is indicated as '''Recommended,''' in brackets. 

|-
| 00:03:31
| Also in the '''Drivers '''section, it shows the driver suitable for my printer.

|-
| 00:03:38
| Now, click on '''Forward '''again.

|-
| 00:03:42
| Now, we are prompted to describe our printer - printer name and its location.

|-
| 00:03:49
| I will keep it as '''Default''' and click on '''Apply.'''

|-
| 00:03:53
| Our printer is successfully added to our computer.

|-
| 00:04:00
| A message appears '''“Would you like to print a test page?”'''

|-
| 00:04:04
| Let's click on '''Print Test Page '''option.

|-
| 00:04:08
| A pop up will appear with a a message 

|-
| 00:04:12
| '''“Submitted – Test Page submitted as job ...”'''  and its number.

|-
| 00:04:18
| Click on '''OK'''. 

|-
| 00:04:20
| Again click '''OK i'''n the '''Printer Properties''' dialog box.

|-
| 00:04:24
| Here is our test print from our printer.

|-
| 00:04:29
| Our printer is now ready to print our documents.

|-
| 00:04:34
| Let's close the '''Printer''' dialog box.

|-
| 00:04:37
| Let me quickly demonstrate how to print a document.

|-
| 00:04:42
| Let's open a document.

|-
| 00:04:45
| Then, press the keys '''Ctrl''' and '''P''' together.

|-
| 00:04:49
| The '''Print '''dialog box appears.

|-
| 00:04:53
| Notice that the connected printer is selected by default.

|-
| 00:04:58
| In this dialog box, we have several options.

|-
| 00:05:03
| '''Range''' allows us to select the range of pages that we want to print.

|-
| 00:05:08
| There are some options available under '''Range.'''

|-
| 00:05:12
| '''All pages''' option prints all the pages in the document.

|-
| 00:05:16
| '''Current page''' option prints only the current selected page.

|-
| 00:05:22
| '''Pages''' option prints the pages according to our specification, say for example, 3-4.

|-
| 00:05:31
| Next, let's look at the options available under '''Copies'''.

|-
| 00:05:36
| '''Copies '''option is where we choose the no. of copies that we want to print.

|-
| 00:05:42
| If we change '''Copies''' to '''2''', then '''2''' copies of the selected pages will be printed.

|-
| 00:05:49
| And click on the '''Print '''button.

|-
| 00:05:52
| If you have configured your printer correctly, your document will started printing.

|-
| 00:05:58
| This brings us to the end of the tutorial. In this tutorial, we learnt to

|-
| 00:06:05
