Printing configuration

Go to: "Start" -> "settings" -> "Printers and faxes"

Choose "Add printer"

Choose "Local printer attached to this computer" (uncheck the "automatically detect and install..."

Choose "create a new port" and choose "Standar TCP/IP Port"

You will then have to specify the IP addresse: 172.23.213.43

The port name should be automaticcaly IP_172.23.213.43 but you probably can change it

Select "generic network card" and "next"

Then you have to specify the drivers:

choose the Manufacturer: "HP" and the Printer: "HP color Laser Jet 4650"

I didn't find "HP color Laser Jet 4650" on my computer so I had to download the correct driver on the HP website here. I choose the PS drivers, but I am not sure if it is better to choose PCL5 (or PCL6).


Once the driver is installed, you might do a few modifications:

Go to: "Start" -> "settings" -> "Printers and faxes", make it default (right click)

look at the properties (right click) Go to "device settings" and look for the "duplex unit" option: make it installed so that you can automatically print on both sides. Et voila! Now you can print some pretty good things :)
