How to Install a Printer Driver in Linux

    • 1). Navigate to the printer manufacturer's website.

    • 2). Look for a support section and search by the model number. It's often clearly branded on the printer. If not, look for it on the underside.

    • 3). Download the drivers for your printer.

    • 4). Follow the instructions included with the driver. Some drivers need to be compiled from source code, while others come ready to install by your package manager. In the case of the latter, simply double-click the file. Either method will require you to have administrative rights on the system you're using.

    • 5). Test whether the drivers installed properly by printing a document.
