Editing How to Add a Printer to Time Capsule



Adding a printer to a Time Capsule can be a convenient way to share the printer among multiple devices on a network. Here are the steps to add a printer to a Time Capsule:

1. First, make sure your printer is compatible with the Time Capsule. Check the printer's manual or the manufacturer's website for compatibility information.

2. Connect your printer to the Time Capsule's USB port using a USB cable. Make sure the printer is turned on.

3. Open AirPort Utility on your Mac or iOS device. If you don't have it installed, you can download it from the App Store.

4. Select your Time Capsule from the list of Wi-Fi base stations, and then click on "Edit."

5. Click on the "Disks" tab and make sure "Enable file sharing" is checked.

6. Click on the "Printers" tab and then click on the "+" button to add a new printer.

7. Select your printer from the list of available printers.

8. If your printer requires a special driver, click on "Use" and then select the driver from the list. If your printer doesn't require a driver, select "Generic PostScript Printer" or "Generic PCL Printer."

9. Click on "Save" to save your changes.

Once you've completed these steps, your printer should be available to any device on your network that has the correct drivers installed. You can test it by printing a test page from one of your devices.
