Digital Divide - Printer Connection


Time Narration
00:01 Hello and welcome to the spoken tutorial on Printer Connection.
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn to connect a printer to a computer.
00:11 For this tutorial, I'm using
00:13 Ubuntu Linux 12.10 OS
00:17 and Cannon printer.
00:20 Let me quickly introduce you to the various components of a computer.
00:25 This is the CPU,
00:27 Monitor,
00:29 Keyboard,
00:30 Mouse,
00:32 and Printer.
00:34 Let's look at the CPU.
00:41 In most of the CPUs, there are some USB ports in the front
00:46 and some at the back.
00:49 Now, let's have a look at our printer.
00:53 Usually, there is a power switch on the front or top part of the printer.
01:00 And there is a power slot and a USB port at the back of the printer.
01:11 To connect a printer to a computer, we have to use a USB cable.
01:16 Let's connect the USB cable to the printer.
01:22 Now, let's connect the other end of the cable to the CPU's USB port.
01:30 Now, our printer is connected to the computer.
01:33 Switch on the power button on the printer.
01:37 Now, let's configure the printer using our computer.
01:43 Let's go to the Desktop.
01:46 Click on the Dash Home icon, at the top left hand side of the launcher bar.
01:53 In the Search bar, type Printing.
01:58 The printer icon will be displayed.
02:02 Click on it.
02:04 In older versions of Ubuntu, click on
02:07 System ,
02:08 Administration ,
02:09 and Printing.
02:12 Now, the Printing dialog box appears.
02:16 It says - There are no printers configured yet.
02:21 At the top left corner, there is a button named Add with a green Plus sign on it. Click on it.
02:30 It will open the New Printer dialog box.
02:34 On the left hand side, a list of printer devices connected to the computer, is displayed.
02:42 Here, let's select our printer, i.e., Cannon Printer and click on Forward.
02:51 Then it will automatically begin searching for drivers. I will click on Cancel.
02:59 Now, the dialog box switches to the Choose Driver option.
03:04 The Default option will work in most cases.
03:08 Since, I have a Canon Printer, here in this list, it is selected by default.
03:16 Now click on Forward.
03:19 In the Model page, my printer model is automatically detected.
03:26 It is indicated as Recommended, in brackets.
03:31 Also, in the Drivers section, it shows the driver suitable for my printer.
03:38 Now, click on Forward again.
03:42 Now, we are prompted to describe our printer - printer name and its location.
03:49 I will keep it as Default and click on Apply.
03:53 Our printer is successfully added to our computer.
04:00 A message appears “Would you like to print a test page?”
04:04 Let's click on Print Test Page option.
04:08 A pop up will appear with a a message
04:12 “Submitted – Test Page submitted as job ...” and its number.
04:18 Click on OK.
04:20 Again click on OK in the Printer Properties dialog box.
04:24 Here is our test print from our printer.
04:29 Our printer is now ready to print our documents.
04:34 Let's close the Printer dialog box.
04:37 Let me quickly demonstrate how to print a document.
04:42 Let's open a document.
04:45 Then, press the keys Ctrl and P together.
04:49 The Print dialog box appears.
04:53 Notice that the connected printer is selected by default.
04:58 In this dialog box, we have several options.
05:03 Range allows us to select the range of pages that we want to print.
05:08 There are some options available under Range:
05:12 * All pages option prints all the pages in the document.
05:16 * Current page option prints only the current selected page.
05:22 * Pages option prints the pages according to our specification, say for example, 3-4.
05:31 Next, let's look at the options available under Copies.
05:36 Copies option is where we choose the no. of copies that we want to print.
05:42 If we change Copies to 2, then 2 copies of the selected pages will be printed.
05:49 And click on the Print button.
05:52 If you have configured your printer correctly, your document will start printing.
05:58 This brings us to the end of this tutorial. In this tutorial, we learnt to
06:05 * Connect a printer to a computer
06:07 * Configure the printer settings and
06:10 * Print a document.
06:12 And we also learnt about the various print options available.
06:17 We hope this information was helpful.
